 “Products of a Chaotic Brain”
by Charlotte Saliers

This exhibit is a look into a creative brain expressed in glass and broken pottery.  Some subjects repeat themselves (bee’s on the brain), while others are random creations.  All are colorful and joyful.

Charlotte is a longtime Urbandale resident who has been working with stained glass for over 20 years.  She uses glass, pottery and upcycled items to create light hearted mosaics.  She doesn’t take her work too seriously, because she believes art should be fun!
"Threads of Connection"
Stephanie Majeran

This exhibit is an exploration of color, texture, and form through the versatile medium of yarn. Each piece incorporates thrifted items, yarn scraps, and/or driftwood, highlighting sustainability while reflecting nature's textures and our deep connection to it.

Stephanie is a Des Moines-based fiber artist whose passion for yarn art emerged during the pandemic, sparked by creative moments shared with her young daughter. Discovering a natural affinity for working with yarn, Stephanie has dedicated herself to mastering a variety of yarn-based techniques, including woven wall hangings, intricate yarn paintings, and playful pom-pom creations. Her work is inspired by the textures and colors of nature, often featuring driftwood and reclaimed fibers to craft pieces that resonate with her commitment to sustainability. By transforming found materials into art, she breathes new life into what might otherwise be overlooked. Stephanie’s large-scale installations have been featured in local Airbnbs, and her custom creations have found homes in spaces with unique design needs. Through her art, she aims to infuse everyday environments with vibrant color and texture, inviting viewers to reconnect with the beauty of the natural world.
