Artists' Reception: Sandy Johnson and Geri Verble - The Art of Serendipity

Geri Verble will share her collection of African beads and speak about its cultural significance and symbolism, developed through her travels with the Peace Corps. Sandy Johnson will help identify stones while demonstrating how a stone in its raw form becomes the centerpiece of one of her designs, inviting attendees to listen to a stone slab and focus on what form and shape the stone wants to be before it is cut and polished. The reception will be celebrated with fellowship and refreshments. A portion of sales will benefit Rebuilding Together Sandoval County, a nonprofit dedicated to repairing homes for low-income families.
