The biggest art exhibition in Flagstaff has announced it dates! The Flagstaff Recycled Art Exhibition is returning for its 14th year. This year it is being hosted at the Arts Connection Gallery at the Flagstaff Mall.

The Hozhoni artists will create a piece to contribute, and we encourage all artists of Coconino and Yavapai counties to participate. The gallery space at the mall is quite expansive, and artists can submit up to 4 pieces this year. In addition to the exhibition, there will be free artist demonstrations at the gallery space from 1 to 3 PM every Saturday in April after the reception.

If you are interested in participating, or simply wish to attend the reception, information will be available on the Artist Coalition of Flagstaff’s website (http://www.flagstaff-arts.org/), along with the application. We hope to see you there!

For our second year, Hozhoni is hosting for its first show of 2016 the Textile and Ceramic exhibition. Just like its name implies, this show contains fiber arts and various items made out of clay. Due to the versatility and practical nature of both mediums, there will be many features in the show to display textiles’ and ceramics’ functions.

The reception will be Saturday, January 23rd from 12 to 2 PM at our Hozhoni Gallery. During the reception, there will also be a make and take workshop using modeling clay for all ages. At this workshop, all supplies are covered. We are asking for a $5 suggested donation, but don’t stress too much about it if its hard to find the funds.

The show will run until the end of February, so we hope that you can make it in to see the beautiful variety of creations made by the Hozhoni artists.

We are pleased to announce that our program director, Terri Engel, has been nominated for the Excellence in Leadership Viola Award for this year. She has been an essential component in creating this one of a kind art program for adults with disabilities in Northern Arizona, and we are very proud of all her hard work.

Check out her full length bio on the Flagstaff Arts Council’s website, and perhaps consider attending the Viola Awards this year to see all the amazing talent this town has to offer.

The Hozhoni Art Program is incredibly grateful for our supporters. Last year, Traveling Sole Productions based out of NAU made a short ad about us and what we do here. Thank you to Traveling Sole Productions for their effort!
