| The Dancing Otter Mission.. The Native American meaning of the Otter is "Happiness and Laughter - in spite of the circumstances". We thought this was something that EVERYONE could use right now. So we created a Gathering Place that would be exciting, happy, and inspiring...A Place that would have bold new art, enchanting entertainment, and outstanding treats from our Coffee Bar. |
On the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays of each month... Artist Roundtable Meeting - a time for artists to gather together and socialize, share marketing and networking information, and find out about new opportunities. 1-3pm AND....at 3pm, Artists are welcome to participate in an Artist Trading Card Swap. We will work on Artist Trading Cards to trade with one another. Peace If you aren't familiar with Peace yet, you will be. Peace is a known Artist in the Grants Pass area and you can find his paintings exclusively here at the Dancing Otter. An Outsider Artist - or better defined as a Brut Artist, you can find a sampling of a few of his different styles of work. Many days you can find Peace in front of the Gallery - painting , or participating in Poetry night.
