Art Connections

After 20 years of helping guide artists' careers in one of the nation's top high-end craft galleries, Sherry Masters shares her deep connections and invites participants inside the studios of leading and emerging artists in a range of media from clay to wood to glass and more. This hand-picked coterie of artists represents the top talent in one of the nation's foremost regions for fine craft. Through thoughtfully designed itineraries, participants in Art Connections tours go inside the studios of working artists. Watching an object turned on a lathe, a lump of clay fashioned into a simple, beautiful functional object, participants will hear from the artist as he or she describes the decisions, both aesthetic and practical, that go into making a work of art. With insight into the inspiration and process, a true connection with the artist is forged.
