Northwest Regional Meeting

Through the Alliance membership and meetings I have met and befriended so many people who have such a vast knowledge of the artist-in-residency field. These experts have been welcoming, open for questions, and so supportive of the emerging members.

Portland, Oregon

A fine time was had by all at Oregon College of Art & Craft. The group was inspired by a discussion on “Artists’ Communities as Environmental Stewards” and the region showed a strong level of commitment to their local communities. The discussions were interspersed with a glazing and raku firing, which gave many of us new appreciation for ceramic artists. Bullseye Connection gave the group a private gallery showing, and an exciting tour of the Bullseye Glass Co. Factory. Of the 18 attendees, 10 had never attended Alliance gatherings before, so it was a great opportunity to meet and join forces.
