SUMMARY:INFUSION--Call For Art Exhibition--March 2025
DESCRIPTION:The Kenai Art Center \, the Kenai River Brewing Company and the Tuneweavers will be getting together for this 2025  juried call-for-art show and beer launch fundraiser. Every year in March the KAC and the Kenai River Brewing Company collaborate to launch a new beer and put on a great juried show. We are fortunate to have jurors Stephanie Cox\, Marco Mendoza and Jason Notter helping to put this show together. \nThis year the title of the show is INFUSION. For artists submitting artwork\, think about what INFUSION means to you creatively and visually. More info about that? Infusion is: the introduction of a new element or quality into something. A drink can be infused with an herbal extract\, or a person can be infused with happiness. A meadow can be infused with the sweet aroma of flowers or our minds can be infused with ideas and creativity. The KAC is looking for any original artwork (2-d\, 3-d\, fabric\, mixed media\, pottery\, etc) made within the last two years that hasn’t been shown in the KAC before.  Art submissions will be accepted starting Saturday February 1st through Saturday March 1st by 5 pm. All 2-d work (or any work that needs to hang) must have hanging hardware attached. All pieces must be accompanied by a KAC art entry submission form. For questions: kenaiartcenter@gmail.com. \nFirst Friday Opening Reception and new beer launch. March 7th 5 pm. Live music by the Tuneweavers. Free Event. Open to the public.

SUMMARY:SECRET GARDEN Exhibition Featuring Artists Morgan Chamberlain and Daisy Jeffords
DESCRIPTION:  \nIn our back gallery we will be featuring artists Morgan Chamberlain and Daisy Jeffords. The artists are known for both pottery and painting. They have participated in past mural shows at the Kenai Art Center and are active members of the Kenai Potters Guild. \nThe opening reception for SECRET GARDEN will coincide with the main gallery opening reception of the juried show INFUSION on March 7th 5 pm.

I am inspired by the wildflowers of Alaska and my garden. I have a background in functional ceramics from studying at Brigham Young University of Idaho where I honed my skills and techniques to create pieces that are not only aesthetically pleasing\, but also serve a practical purpose. I love teaching\, learning\, and experimenting with different styles. As a mother of two\, I find joy in creating pieces that reflect the beauty of nature and bring a touch of the outdoors into my everyday family life. My work is a blend of passion for pottery and a deep love for the natural world\, creating pieces that are both unique and timeless. \n  \n

Open to the public. Free event! \n  \nInformation For Mural Artists: \nThe KAC is looking for mural artists who have participated in past KAC mural shows to show and sell their stretched murals for our May 2025 mural sale happening in the back gallery.  \nIf you are interested\, here are the sale details:  \n\nYou must be a Kenai Art Center member to submit your mural for sale or there is a $35 entry fee.\nThe murals need to be on a stretcher frame. They don’t need to be traditionally framed\, but will only be accepted if they are stretched.  Hanging hardware must be attached on back of piece. \nEach artist needs to fill out and turn in an art entry form with their submissions. Each artist may submit up to 3 murals.   To download and print a form: https://kenaiartcenter.org/forms/\nWe are accepting mural submissions starting Saturday April 5th through Saturday April 26th. \nThis will be a rotating sale–meaning\, as a mural sells\, we will replace it with another one. This will help draw more people in to see your work since we will be changing the show each week. \nAll decisions about the order the murals are shown and hung is up to the executive director with input from the KAC board of directors. \n\nThere is also another mural sale in August\, so be thinking about getting your murals stretched for that one too!  \nIF you have any questions\,  reach out to us via email at kenaiartcenter@gmail.com

SUMMARY:WORLD ON FIRE featuring art by Geoffrey Smith
DESCRIPTION:Join us in our main gallery to view the works of Geoffrey Smith–painter\, sculptor\, and photographer in his solo show titled WORLD ON FIRE. \nGeoffrey has been characterized as a representational artist\, although stylistically he may be viewed as a naturalist. Geoffrey’s very large works and his signature artistic style can be deemed “loose\, wherein the subjects of his work are represented by basic elements such as fingerprints suggesting feathers or fur.  He mixes fine wax and oil paint\, then uses a palette knife to sculpt the painting and giving his work a distinctive deeply dimensional feeling displaying large strokes and layers of texture.  Geoffrey is a Conservationist and lover of nature. Much of his time\, talent\, and treasure goes toward supporting charities that foster his ideals. More info about Geoffrey Smith: https://www.geoffreycsmith.com/ \nOur First Friday Opening Reception for WORLD ON FIRE will be in our main gallery from 5–7 pm On August 1st. This show will run through Friday August 29th.
