For August, we're having a special weekend show with brother-sister duo Heather Nashelle and Frank Lynn Pierce.
Heather Nashelle is the creative genius behind Nashelle Designs, a nationally distributed line of quality jewelry. You can find her hand crafted work at high-end retailers like Nordstrom and on the necks of well-known celebrities and fashion icons. Despite all her success, Heather still calls Juneau "home" and we love to feature her for a trunk show when she's in town! Enjoy an expanded selection of her work, and also, Heather will be doing custom stamping at the event! Create your own custom charm or necklace on the spot!
Frank Lynn Pierce is a talented local photographer, known for his images of aurora, landscapes, and wildlife. His pictures are vivid and full of life, and printed on unique brushed aluminum surface that really makes the images "pop." We keep a selection of Frank's work on hand regularly, but enjoy an expanded selection of his work and maybe even a new image this month!
Heather and Frank's show will take place on Friday, August 10 and Saturday, August 11. Tentative show times are 10am - 6pm both days. Following the show, work by these two artists will be featured for the remainder of the month.
