Shards & Chardonnay Mosaic Making Night

Written by Tina Gramann on April 21, 2025.

Artist Anne Walker and the Salida Community Mosaic are getting close to the finish line! After numerous workshops and thousands of hand laid tiles by community members and the artist, the 60′ long mosaic can see the light at the end of the tunnel! We can’t wait to share the work at the installation at Chisholm Park later this summer!

Join Anne for a fun Sip & Mosaic SHARDS & CHARDONNAY Night on Friday, May 9 from 5-7pm at the Scout Hut. Then just a few more workshops are available in April and May.

Last call, come help Anne bring it home, and help create the Salida Community Mosaic!

Broken

Written by Addison Guskey on March 25, 2024.

“Broken” is a study of contrasts, much like photography is a study in the contrast of light; love and loss, before and after, healed and broken. This collection of wet plate silver collodion tintypes accompanied by the subject’s corresponding story of heartache, betrayal and loss is a deep-dive into how the death of a relationship can feel like the death of the self. How heartbreak can resonate as a physical sensation within the body. How trust can be shattered leaving a soul vulnerable and raw.
