Artist Salon - Matthew Offenbacher


Untitled by Matthew Offenbacher

For the second installment of artist-in-residence Joey Veltkamp's Artist Salons, Matthew Offenbacher will be leading participants on a workshop tomorrow (Monday, Nov 9) from 4-5pm. Outside of his artistic practice (he shows at Howard House), Matt is probably best known for his community building. He was a finalist for the 2009 Betty Bowen Award and received the Kayla Skinner Special Recognition Award. Matthew is also responsible for reactivating the Henry's Gift Shop and turning it into a temporary space where pairs of artists will have monthly shows. If you'd like to read more about Matt, here's an interview between him and Joey Veltkamp.

While geared towards Seattle University students, everyone is welcome to attend the Artist Salons. Tomorrow's workshop will begin at 4pm in Room 040 of Hunthausen Hall. Hope to see you there!
