The Orcas Center is presenting an innovative collection of new works from more than two dozen artists. The show opens on Oct. 7 from 5:30 to 7 p.m. in the lobby and Madrona Room.

Expect to see a host of alternative mediums not usually shown together: gunpowder on glass and Venetian plaster, salvaged materials, photography, jewelry, doll making, metal, book and paper arts, screen printing, mixed media, and more.

Kevin Dickey will layer in live music during the event utilizing a unique medium of his own: his crystal singing bowl.

The group of artists includes Emily Aring, Sadie Bailey, Ali Boe, Osa Caudill, Andrea Cohen, Khadoma Colomby, Satya Curcio, David Densmore, Kevin Dickey, Dwight Duke, Erica Ekrem, Chuck Greening, Marguerite Greening, Jorgen Harle, Erika Harlow, Carlin Hayworth, Kt Hendrie, Stephanie Iverson, Deborah Jones, Zackaraya Leck, Jeff Ludwig (aka Uncle Junk), Jennifer Posada, Sebastian Posada, Susan Slapin, Deborah Sparks, Winfred Taylor, Judy Tepley, Jasmine Townsend, and Kyler Townsend.
“Please come and enjoy a gorgeous evening filled with local alternative art, music, and conversations with the artists themselves,” say organizers. “Make a night of it and stay for the Orcas Horns and Nouveau Stride, playing at the Orcas Center directly following the art opening.”
