Join Fairbanks Arts in the Bear Gallery for our August exhibitions: Stitched for the Future by Lyndsi R. Harris and The Majesty of Alaska by Tiffany M. Davis.
\n \;\n\nThe exhibitions are on view in the Bear Gallery from August 4&ndash\;26. First Friday is August 4 from 12&ndash\;7 p.m.\, with an opening reception from 5&ndash\;7 p.m. The rest of the month\, the gallery will be open Monday&ndash\;Saturday from 12&ndash\;6 p.m.
\n \;\n\nStitched for the Future was created to explore worldwide endangered species and conservation efforts. The pieces are stitched on non-traditional embroidery surfaces\, mostly birch tree bark and hand-tanned salmon leather\, but all are only sustainably harvested materials. \;
\n \;\n\nLyndsi wishes to convey a vision of hope for our planet through stories of incredible people fighting to preserve the astonishing wildlife worldwide for future generations. In support of this vision\, Lyndsi is donating 10% of the proceeds of each sale to various conservation efforts &ndash\; some small local efforts and some large-scale worldwide efforts. \;
\n \;\n\nLyndsi R. Harris is a contemporary mixed-media artist specializing in watercolor and hand embroidery on various non-traditional canvases\, including birch tree bark and hand-tanned salmon leather. Lyndsi was the 2022 Greater Fairbanks Chamber of Commerce Artist of the Year. In addition\, she was the featured artist for the 2022 Fairbanks Summer Arts Festival. \;
\n \;\n\nThe Majesty of Alaska is a collection of oil paintings on canvas that capture Alaska&rsquo\;s jaw-dropping views with vibrant color. Each painting holds a hidden surprise for the viewer to find. \;
\n \;\n\nTiffany M. Davis is an oil painter who lives in North Pole. She strives to capture the texture and majesty of the subject matter in her paintings. Each painting contains a &ldquo\;hidden treasure\,&rdquo\; encouraging viewers to become explorers and find the secret in each work of art. \;
\n \;\n\nTiffany was a finalist for the Fairbanks Artist of the Year. She&rsquo\;s exhibited in multiple solo shows in Alaska and New Mexico and had work published in Home By Design Magazine. Davis is a board member of the Grange Gallery in North Pole. \;
\n \;\n\nThese exhibitions are free and open to the public\, thanks to support from our donors and members. For more information\, visit fairbanksarts.org.
