Repost from @wearable_art_juneau
Wave hello to Mary Lou Gervais
👋🏻🌊
She is originally from Lewiston, Maine and now has lived in Juneau for the better part of 33 years!
Mary Lou was in the very first Wearable Art Show at the Elks Club, 22 years ago as “Phoenix Rising”. In addition, she has been an artist/model for two previous years of Wearable Art. 🎉
This year her unconventional material will include
feathers and scarves!
Mary Lou claims that she is participation in Wearable Art as a distraction from working on her house… 🏡
“… I am in the final Rubik’s cube turns away from completing a 20-year renovation…” Mary-Lou says “I came to Alaska as a 20 year-old adventurer and returned a year later as a Jesuit Volunteer children’s advocate at the AWARE shelter.” @awareshelter @jvcnorthwest
Welcome!! 🌊

Wearable Art 2019 is a wrap! This show takes over 9 months to produce, including 6 months of production meetings, several months of set building, 1 month of model rehearsals, 1 week to install in Centennial Hall, 2 performances, and then we take it all down in 1 evening. Most artists begin working on their pieces not long after finishing this year’s show. We had 27 incredible pieces this year, and next year will be 20 years of Wearable Art in Juneau. I get to work with the most amazing team to make this fascinating intersection of visual and performance art happen, and can’t wait to do it all again in 2020! 💙

Bravo, Team Wearable Art 2020! Y’all amaze me, every single time. I’m honored to be part of the process, and to help you share your art on stage. Artists & models, thank you for your never ending creativity and bravery. Production team, I wouldn’t choose any other people to be locked in a large brown box with for 8 days straight. Juneau, you’re weird and I love you. I hope we keep creating Wearable Art for another 20 years. 💙❤️💜
📸 ronngile Thank you for making my group photo dreams come true!

About Wearable Art in Juneau
The Juneau Arts and Humanities Council has been dazzling audiences for 20 years with Wearable Arts. Artists from Juneau and Southeast Alaskan communities come together inspired by creativity, fashion, and performance to create one of the most loved events to attend in Juneau. The list of materials worn on the runway are endless, and every year we are shocked and delighted by new innovations with outfits made of wood, recycled bottles, paper, eggshells, living plants, plane parts, and more! Every act struts the runway to a carefully orchestrated performance that often leaves the crowd in awe or clapping and cheering in excitement.
The Wearable Art Extravaganza is the JAHC’s largest fundraiser of the year and the proceeds raised are used to fund fine arts scholarships, individual artists grants, and support operations at the Juneau Arts and Culture Center to help keep it affordable for the community.
