ARTIST RECEPTION:

MARCH 2, Friday 6-9 PM

Dirty Delicacies: An eclectic fusion of intricate and bold jewelry designs, sparkling skeletals, glittering crowns & other curiosities…

Jewelry artist Mikal Winn grew up on a dairy farm in rural Ohio. Since 2003, Mikal designs and crafts his dynamic, organic jewelry at his Wonder Valley studio. Winn’s jewelry has been worn by celebrities, featured in magazines, and sold in boutiques and galleries in the U.S., England, Spain, Greece, and Japan.

A more recent transplant to Wonder Valley is fine art jewelry artist Lori Greene. Lori exclaims: "I fell into jewelry-making quite by accident. In 1989, while building a battery component to a wheelchair system, a pool of solder that had formed at my bench. There I saw a crescent moon and stars, and my journey had begun. Inspired, I soon was experimenting in metals and jewelry design.”

Join us for a dazzling artist reception on March 2, Friday, 6-9:00 pm at the Creative Center, located at 6847 Adobe Road, 29 Palms.
