Words from Jane Reviewing the entries submitted for our first ever online exhibition has been a thrilling time for us.

Our offices are next door to each other and it hasn’t been unusual for Wayne to start the day by calling out to me, “You’ve got to come and see this!” One piece after another surprised and delighted us!

The diversity of this community was always understood but never quantified! Now we have tangible evidence of the many distinctive talents of our members, including quilting and stitching, along with woodworking, the use of clay and polymer clay, and all varieties of mixed media and drawing.

Some pieces tell stories we immediately grasp. Others allude to stories we will never fully know or understand. This exhibition also includes pieces that are beautiful in color or form, and that is the story each tells. There is something for everyone, because good work invites the viewer to engage, bringing his or her own version of the story into the equation.

I am grateful for each of you who took time to prepare photographs and text in order to be included in this exhibition. I hope you are proud of the work you shared and that this is an inspiration to keep working. I hope those of you who chose not to enter this time around will do so in the future!

Creating art is first and foremost an experiential gift to the maker, but sharing it brings another sort of sweet joy that everyone should have the chance to experience!
