The Art of the Berry : A celebration of the fruits of Alaska on display at the Charles Sheldon Center

Thank you to the local artists, art admirers, and berry enthusiasts for joining us for the opening of the Art of the Berry! We are happy to be hosting this multi-media art show that celebrates the great Alaskan berry with incredible quilts, paintings, photographs, glass pieces and more!
