Sneak peek ๐ August First Friday
Come by the JACC this Friday between 4:30-7 pm to see the newest exhibit in the Gallery: "More Than Survival," by Fairbainks artist Colleen Firmin Thomas.
About the artist: Colleen grew up in the Gwichโin community of Fort Yukon, Alaska and in Fairbanks, Alaska. As a child these two communities often seemed to represent two opposing worlds, her Gwichโin culture and her non-native background.
Her work continues to be an exploration of living in the middle areas. In the middle of cultures, in the middle of motherhood in the middle of chaos and peace, life and death.
Working with traditional Gwichโin sewing materials such as moose fur, porcupine quills, sinew and other elements from nature combined allows Colleen to show the influence of her two cultures.

If you can't make it during First Friday, the exhibit will be up through the month of August. The Gallery in the JACC is open Monday through Friday, 9am-5pm. ...
