Regular:
We display year-round at galleries across the country. A few of our wallpieces are available for sale online at AmericaCreates.com and on ArtfulHome.com.
Since 2008, we have also the honor to display our wallpieces at Riva Cucina, one of Berkeley's finest new restaurants, right in our neighborhood.
Most years we display at the American Craft Council's wholesale and retail shows in Baltimore in February, and San Francisco in August. ACC's competitive juried craft shows are among the finest in the United States. The Baltimore show is generally considered the best, and is also the largest. The Pacific States show in San Francisco - the most pleasant of the ACC shows - happens to be in our neighborhood.
Current & Upcoming:
13-15 August, 2010 we will be exhibiting at the American Craft Council's American Craft Show in San Francisco. Come see us booth 603, in Fort Mason's Festival Pavilion.
3-6 September, 2010 we will be exhibiting our wallpieces and sculpture at the Sausalito Art Festival.
Selected Saturdays this Summer we will be showing mostly our smaller work - jewelry and smaller vases - at the Saturday Grand Lake Farmer's Market in Oakland. Dates we will attend will be announced here.
