Rebecca Abarr, our resident basket-weaver extraordinaire, has had a work of art selected for display in the prestigious Octagon Center for the Arts 40th Annual National Clay, Fiber, Paper, Glass, Metal, Wood Show in Ames, Iowa.
The exhibit will be on display until April and features 79 works of art created by 59 artists from 11 states. The opening reception is Friday, January 25th from 5:30 to 7:30pm.
Did someone say, "Road Trip?"
Abarr's selected work is called "Triad" and is made of sweet and reed grasses. The unexpected texture of the artful pyramid whispers of the ancients and reminds us that there are no limits to the creative artist.
Although Rebecca has a strong national and regional reputation as a basket weaver, she may be best known locally for her high quality classes and baskets offered at the Blue Frog. She resides in Redding, Iowa with her husband and two youngest sons.
For more information on her classes and works, she can be found working at the Blue Frog on Thursdays from 10am-5pm. Stop by and congratulate her!
