Sasha Barrett was born and raised in Sumy, Ukraine, where he spent half of his childhood. He has been a resident artist at various clay studios across the country, as well as completing his MFA from the University of Montana in 2025. He states, “This exhibition is a portrayal of the last three-plus years of war on the soil of my homeland. Whether through the tactile properties of clay sculpture, the direct information delivery of documentary film, or actual artifacts and objects from the war, I hope this presentation of artwork leaves you with compassion and a deeper understanding of what Ukraine is fighting for.”

You bring the gifts and Art Salvage provides the materials and inspiration for wrapping with upcycled style!

The DIY Gift Wrapping Station will be available during open hours with a variety of reuse papers, ribbons and more for creating everything from the wrapping itself, to the tags and bows that go on top. If you need a little help, our examples will provide you with ideas for making gift bags, custom stamped papers, or vintage ephemera to pair with unique trims and finishes.

Nan Drye has been a working artist for 25 years and her first love has always been textiles. She started out designing and making clothing, and explored synthetic dyes as part of that. In 2011 Nan discovered the eco printing process, and has been doing that ever since. But every once in awhile an artist needs to branch out and explore and that is what this fiber jewelry show is about.

Accessories can pull an outfit together, dress up plain clothing, or help us express ourselves. Fiber jewelry is an extension of that ~ earrings, cuffs, bracelets, necklaces, collars, and scarves all made from small pieces of fine fabric, many made from upcycled materials.

Stop by Pottery Place Plus in the Liberty Building this Dec to see Nan's work ~ stop by First Friday Dec 5th from 5-8pm to meet Nan in person!

Hannah Fountain is a self-taught artist living in Moses Lake, WA. She began drawing and painting in her early childhood in California, being drawn to realism and the effects of light in artwork. In 2019, Hannah launched her art business, and began appearing at local shows. In 2023, she was voted “Best of the Basin” in the Columbia Basin here in Washington state. She has been featured in Florida’s Surfmag magazine, as well as many gallery shows and fine art festivals in CA, MT, ID, and WA.

In Hannah's own words: “My process involves capturing images of water in motion, light reflecting, or even still life, and following the reality of what I see closely. I call my style "realistic expressionism" because realism is beautiful, but when we deviate from reality, it truly becomes a work of art."

Stop by the Liberty Gallery this Dec to see Hannah's beautiful paintings ~ stop by First Friday Dec 5th from 5pm-8:30pm to meet Hannah in person!
