Studio Sanctuaries - Part 2
Few things are more important to an artist than their workspaces. Part sanctuary, part workshop, part hang-out: This exhibit honors our studio spaces where we spend most of our time.

- Hello Gina, It's great to see your work as well, very inspiring. I like the way you organized and installed your work.
I have been worried that crafthaus is turning into metals-haus, not that I don't love my metals people, but it certainly is nice to see all your fiber-y work.

"Behind the Brooch"
I have always thought that the back of a jewelry piece is as important as the front. If you feel the same way, consider sending images of the front and backside of your brooches to Lorena Angulo asap. Lorena is looking for images to place in a future crafthaus online exhibition!
