Vessels are among the oldest forms of human creativity—yet each artist finds new ways to reinvent them. From elegant vases to whimsical bowls and sculptural interpretations, this show celebrates the vessel as both function and metaphor. In harmony with Cherry Blossom Week, some works feature the soft pinks and delicate forms that signal springs' arrival. The Ceramic Guild presents pieces that invite viewers to rediscover beauty in the everyday container. Alluring Vessels captures the freshness of spring and the timeless art of form.
Late night Friday, March 13th, open till 9:00pm
