Northwest Expressions:
Potluck Banquet
Join us for a visual feast!
Think of “Northwest bounty" as the backdrop as you create a work of art with the subject of food for Northwind’s juried show.
New! An open studio for prospective Potluck Banquet entrants is set for Saturday, June 21 at Northwind Art School.
Artist and Executive Director Martha Worthley will set up a variety of fresh foods and flowers for painting, drawing and so on, from 12 noon to 4 p.m. Join the party in Northwind's Building 324 at Fort Worden State Park.
Potluck Banquet, the 2025 incarnation of Northwest Expressions, is sponsored by the Chimacum Corner Farmstand. The show will fill Jeanette Best Gallery in downtown Port Townsend from August 28 through October 13, 2025, and artists are invited to apply via the open call on CaFé. To enter work, you must be from Washington or Oregon.
Show us your delicious art! The application deadline is July 13, 2025.
