Have you seen Nature in Miniature yet?

Now on view at Jester Artspace, this exhibition features photography and mixed-media works created by the young artists of Four Youth.

Students looked closely at the plants, insects, textures, colors and patterns around them, transforming their discoveries into small-scale works celebrating the incredible details that are so easy to overlook.

Come see the world through their eyes. 📷🌿

Never tried Gelli printing? That's part of the fun. 🎨

Gelli Printmaking is a playful form of monoprinting that uses a soft, reusable printing plate to layer paint, textures, stencils, plants, found objects and more.

The result? Colorful, one-of-a-kind prints that are just as much about experimenting as they are about the finished piece.

Join us this Saturday to learn the process, play with color and texture, and see what happens when you let go of trying to make everything “perfect.”
