The Island Gallery features internationally recognized artists whose work takes traditional art forms in exciting new directions -- wood furniture and sculpture created from Northwest and exotic woods; museum quality textile art (batik, shibori, ikat and other weavings exhibited as wall hangings and wearables); wood fired ceramics from the finest potters in America; and unique jewelry creations. Our gallery is a destination spot on beautiful Bainbridge Island, a 35 minute ferry ride from Seattle. Its Pacific Rim style reflects artistic collaboration across cultures.

Duets: Six Local Artists, Twelve New Works
Tea Bowls Abloom (see exhibition catalog) 
Every summer, Bainbridge Island welcomes an influx of die-hard flora aficionados who flock from all over the globe to attend one of the gardening world’s premiere events: Bainbridge in Bloom. This two-day celebration includes garden tours, lectures, a bicycle tour, shuttle, and a Festival area featuring an art fair, plant sale, and food vendors. The event itself, however, is only the tip of Bainbridge Island’s summer gardening iceberg: Our growing season is long and the island is overflowing with avid gardeners, most of whom consume rather a lot of tea!
In homage to our island of blooms, teadrinkers, and the artists who enrich us, The Island Gallery presents Tea Bowls Abloom: Ancient Themes, Contemporary Forms, a collection of woodfired ceramic tea and flower vessels from international, national and Northwest clay artists. (see press release.) The Bainbridge in Bloom tours and associated festivities run July 12 - 15, 2007.
