Details, details… We’re in the editing phase of production on Hib Sabin’s new exhibition catalog. The catalog–in both print and digital forms–will debut alongside his solo exhibition, “The Long Game” this July.

New Artist: Lena Snow Amason-Berns
It’s with much gratitude that we show the sculpture of Alaska-based artist Lena Snow Amason-Berns (Alutiiq) in our “Masters of Disguise III” exhibition this year. Those who are familiar with contemporary Alaskan artists will recognize the name Amason from her father, painter and sculptor Alvin Amason. Lena has carved and painted a gorgeous plank mask-style wall […]
Behind the Scenes: Drew Michael and the No Good Very Bad Day
Making art is hard. For every work that arrives in the gallery, there are many that never do, whether they are glass that falls off the pipe at the last moment; ceramic that explodes in the kiln; or stone that cracks at the wrong moment. Sometimes, the idea is there but the material just won’t […]
New Artist: Karver Everson
There are lots of new faces in our mask exhibition “Masters of Disguise III”, and we’re not just talking about all the masks. We are proud to show the work of Karver Everson (K’omoks/Kwakwaka’wakw) for the first time, a young artist who carved the mask shown in his hands at left. Karver is the youngest […]

Southwest Art Magazine Feature on Hib Sabin Out This Month
“The animals are stand-ins for humans,” Sabin explains. “The boats and canoes carry humans between the spirit and human worlds as well as through the different periods in their lifetimes. You have to die in the old period to move on to the new.” Indeed, universal themes of transformation and journeying are common in his artworks, including the transitional moments between life and the […]
New Artist: Jeffrey Veregge
Jeffrey Veregge (Port Gamble S’Klallam) will join us for the May exhibit, bringing his unique Salish Geek vision to “Salish Sound Waves”! Veregge is gaining huge acclaim and recognition for his mix of nerd and pop culture and southern Salish design, with his artwork for Marvel, IDW and Valiant comics. We’re thrilled to present his […]
New Artist: Ronnie Fairbanks
“Salish Sound Waves” is coming up in May, and we’re introducing you to some new faces! Ronnie Fairbanks (Tlingit/Ts’msyen/Chippewa) comes to us from Alaska, and his awesome formline skateboards are turning our heads. They double as wall art and as conveyance — pop some wheels on them and you’re ready to roll. Does that longboard […]
