Featured Artist Opening: Britton Beal

A featured artist opening highlights Britton Beal, a Portland-based textile artist whose hand-tufted work bridges craft, design, and playful storytelling. Their pieces draw on nostalgia, humor, and everyday imagery, turning familiar symbols into richly textured art that feels both cozy and surprising. Soft textures pair with confident color and form, inviting a closer look. The event includes a live tufting demonstration and live music by Bradley Copper Kettle.
