14th Annual Woodpalooza Includes 2 Penn Cove Gallery Artists

8/31/2016

 
Two Penn Cove Gallery wood craftsmen, Gary Leake and Jim Short, are showing their work as part of the 14th Annual Woodpalooza September 2 - 5 in Langley.  You can meet both at the opening reception for the exhibition on Friday, September 2nd at 6:00 p.m.  

According to the Whidbey Island Woodworkers Guild:  "Most furniture and wood-art made today is mass-produced and often designed/built for low cost, short-term use (throw away). Woodpalooza presents an alternative that involves the talents of master craftsmen/women who make their living creating pieces that will beautifully endure for generations.
​
​
The exhibition is intended to simultaneously educate and inspire. Further, we hope that these examples of creativity will inspire others (especially the next-generation) to aspire to consider joining us as a career. The Guild invites everyone to come and experience the numerous types of woods in a wide variety of forms while rubbing shoulders with the artisans who carry on one of our oldest and most endearing professions."
