The big two-zero

Julie A. Buetler is celebrating for good reason! After 20 years as a professional ceramic artist and twenty years of supporting local artists as owner of Anglewood Gallery in downtown Grand Rapids, she is presenting 20…from the heart, a show featuring her own work. After 6 months of preparation, this show is her largest and most emotionally based collection of work in many years. The work, mostly functional pottery, is an intimate  glimpse into what drives her personal journey as an artist. Included in the exhibit will be drawings from her sketchbook, ceramic jewelry and a small line of photography corresponding with her new ceramic pieces. Julie will be sharing the spotlight showing new work by artists Tamra Mielke (pastels), Connie Stose Vasbinder (printmaker), Lonnie Rosenberg (mixed media), Alicia Munk (mixed media) and her stable of regular artists. Opening reception will be April 27th, 6-9pm and show will run until June 9th. Free. Anglewood Gallery, 24195 Front St. Grand Rapids. 419-832-0625. www.anglewoodartgallery.com —JT
