Trash to Art Treasure in Port Ludlow

PORT LUDLOW — The Trash to Art Treasure exhibit is on display at the Bay Club in Port Ludlow.

The exhibit, which is sponsored by the Port Ludlow Art League, will be on display during the month of March at the Bay Club at 120 Spinnaker Lane in Port Ludlow. Visitors can vote for their favorite artwork.

“This type of art seeks to transform waste such as paper, cardboard, wood, glass, plastics, metals and rubber into works of art,” according to a press release.

“The concept goes beyond the conventional recycling of materials by creating objects that exceed the economic, cultural and social value of the original product.”

For more information on art exhibits at the Bay Club, email Alan Ahtow at info@portludlowart.org.

Artist of the Month

The Port Ludlow Art League has named Ann Arscott its artist of the month for March.

Arscott’s artwork embraces oils, pastels and watercolors that portray the beauty of nature and Chinese brush paintings of flowers, animals and landscapes on silk and paper.

Her love of Chinese brush painting led her to study at the China Institute in New York City. Her award-winning work has appeared in galleries in New York, New Jersey and Japan, as well as here in Washington state.

During March, her work is on display at the Sound Community Bank at the corner of Oak Bay Road and Osprey Ridge Drive and online at www.portludlowart.org.

Jeweler of the Month

The League has named Janice Gruber its jeweler of the month for March.

As an artist since 1985 and the Port Ludlow Art League Gallery manager, Gruber’s artwork encompasses a wide range of media, including jewelry. She often incorporates stones, wood, shells, glass, pearls and fabric into her jewelry.

In March, her jewelry designs will be on display at the Port Ludlow Art Gallery and at the Sound Community Bank, both located at the corner of Oak Bay Road and Osprey Ridge Driver.

Her jewelry also can be seen online at www.port ludlowart.org.

The gallery is open every Thursday and Friday from noon to 4 p.m.
