SUMMARY:Gelli-Block Printing Series: with Pam Porter
DESCRIPTION:October 6\, 13\, 20\, 27\, 2026\nFour Tuesdays\, 9:30 AM – 12:00PM\nAll Skill Levels Welcome\n$150 \nCelebrate the rich color and layered beauty of fall through the playful process of Gelli-Block printing. This class features Pam Porter’s signature hybrid technique\, combining Gelli printing and linocut printmaking. Students will begin by creating vibrant\, one-of-a-kind monoprints using a soft gel printing plate\, acrylic paint\, textures\, and stencils. These expressive prints will then serve as background papers for linoleum block prints\, offering a simple and satisfying way to bring depth\, texture\, and color into linocut work. \nOver the course of this four-week series\, students will create prints inspired by pumpkins\, Indian corn\, autumn leaves\, aspen trees\, and other seasonal imagery. The class begins with exploratory Gelli printing and then moves into carving simple linoleum designs to print over the layered backgrounds. By the end of the series\, each student will have a collection of beautiful hand-printed cards. Open to all levels\, this class emphasizes process over perfection in a relaxed\, supportive environment that encourages experimentation\, creativity\, and personal expression. \nFor more information on Pam Porters: https://www.theartbase.org/about/people/ \nRegister

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Rachel Becker "Net-work: Weaving the World"
DESCRIPTION:On view: November 6 to December 4\, 2026\nOpening Reception: Friday\, November 6 from 5 PM- 7 PM\nArtist Talk: Friday\, November 6 at 5:30 PM \n  \nRachel Becker brings a series that explores weaving\, webs\, and networks as structures that connect\, hold\, and move vital energy. Constructed from found and foraged materials: branches\, plant fibers\, fishing line\, and produce netting\, the lightweight hanging sculptures reference nets\, tapestries\, and natural systems. Installed as an immersive canopy\, the works invite visitors to step inside the visible and invisible networks that shape our world\, from mycelial pathways to the “World Wide Web.” Drawing inspiration from ancient textile traditions and the mythic weaver goddesses of pre-medieval Europe\, the project reflects on how the threads of fate\, ecology\, and technology intertwine. \n\nThank you to our generous 2026 Annual Exhibition Sponsor\, Alpine Bank
