Emerging and established ceramic artists from across the country were invited to submit works for consideration for the juried exhibition. As a result, “LUSH 3” showcases diverse  functional, sculptural, and experimental pieces selected by a panel of nationally recognized ceramics artists and judged by Lighthouse ArtCenter’s 3-Wings Fellowship Visiting Artist Jamie Bates. The exhibition will conclude with an Artists’ Reception and Awards Ceremony  October 17, from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Gallery and 2D Studio.

Also on view are works by underwater photographer Chris Leidy, who finds inspiration in the deep. Leidy captures the mysterious and unpredictable depths of the world’s oceans. Tour his collection of underwater limited-edition photography, which has attracted the attention of serious art collectors, ocean enthusiasts, and environmentalists.
