March Feature and Glass Order Deadline

Welcoming a New Artist
We're excited to feature our newest jeweler, Zac Kothrade! A longtime Flagstaff local, Zac earned his Jewelry and Metalsmithing degree at Northern Arizona University and has been honing his craft ever since. From making special clasps designed to be fastened with one hand, to brooches that can be changed effortlessly into pendants, his careful attention to wearability and versatility can be seen across his elegant work.

"I strive to discover simple shapes and forms that are unique, fascinating, and look stunning when worn. Natural shape, pattern and texture are central to the inspiration for the aesthetic of my pieces." - Zac Kothrade

Zac works in Argentium Silver, an alloy made especially for jewelers. With a higher silver content than Sterling, Argentium Silver has a whiter color, doesn't tarnish as easily, and can be hardened to be more durable and scratch resistant. In addition, Zac also uses gold and precious stones as accents on many of his pieces.

Zac recently added a large selection of gorgeous new pieces to his case! Due to an unexpected conflict, he won't be able to attend ArtWalk on Friday, March 1st, but we'll be open with live music by Jim DeBusk starting at 6:00pm. Come by the gallery to see Zac's exquisite craftsmanship in person and enjoy a night out!

A full list of ArtWalk stops and events can be found on the digital map.
