To the editor:

Many thanks to Bainbridge Arts & Crafts for supporting Bainbridge Island’s young artists!

The Bainbridge Arts & Crafts Rain or Shine February exhibit celebrated 26 pieces created by 10 young artists who participated in the 2014 youth art camps and classes at Bainbridge Arts & Crafts and the Bainbridge Island Metro Park & Recreation District.

Thank you to Zoe West, Satjee Stevens, Lauren Yosen, Jeffrey Tappen, Alexandra Morrison, Rose Spils, Zoe Pellegrino, Abby Huck, Ava Roesler and Ellie Cosby for submitting your art work for the Rain or Shine Exhibit. An extra big thank-you to Susan Jackson, BAC executive director, for her vision to create this opportunity for young artists to experience being an exhibit artist in a professional gallery.

And thank you to Lynnette Sandbloom, BAC director of education, and Lindsay Masters, BAC publicist, for all their work and time with the Rain or Shine exhibit.

Looking forward to next year’s show with more participating young artists!
