Bay Area Basket Makers new Exhibit: Baskets and Gourds. Anything Goes.

Bay Area Basket Makers new Exhibit: Baskets and Gourds. Anything Goes.

Presented by Gualala Arts at The Dolphin Gallery and Gift Shop

“Baskets and Gourds. Anything Goes” will consist primarily of baskets and other pieces of art using basket making techniques showing the diversity of the art form. The artwork is expected to range from very small baskets (one member can fit five of her miniatures in the palm of her hand) to pieces that are several feet tall. Many locals and visitors to the Mendonoma coast will appreciate of the idea that many of members of the Bay Area Basket Makers use seaweed, abalone shells, pine needles and other natural elements that are so much a part of the northern California coastline.

Members of the Guild have ranged in age from 16 to one member who just turned 102.  Some of their members specialize in traditional basket making, some embrace structural / non-functional baskets and some are drawn to baskets that would be considered avant-garde.

The exhibit will continue at the Dolphin Gallery through Sunday, October 3, 2021. The Dolphin Gallery is at 39114 Ocean Drive, Cypress Village, in Gualala’s Uptown Gallery District. More information is available at 707,884.3896 and at GualalaArts.org/dolphin-gallery/.
