    3rd PlaceAndrew Witt & Nancy Pizarro, Clay

    Circa Ceramics is a two-person (Andy Witt & Nancy Pizarro) studio that came to be in the fall of 1999, when we began designing & making a line of tableware & acces-sories with an emphasis on functionality, colour, and fun.

    One aspect that makes our ware unique is the fact that we make much of the machinery that helps produce our ware. We do everything in our studio, thereby ensuring the quality we have come to be known by - Every step of the process has to meet our high standards.

    Our specialties lie in the form of the ware and its deco-ration - we make consistent, usable shapes that interplay the design elements of image and colour - Clay with the culinary in mind. We continue to create pieces in our Chicago studio and our work is available to the masses primarily through Etsy, select boutiques, art/craft festivals and the occasional open studio weekend.

    2nd PlaceSteve Tomashek, Mixed Media

    Steve Tomashek grew up in Winona, Minnesota. He is a graduate of Indiana University with a degree in World History and Education. Part way through his university years his familys house burned to the ground and with it his grandfathers woodworking tools were lost. As a way of coming to terms with the loss Steve bought himself a knife and carved a chess set. The experience led him to take up carving as a hobby. Several years of practice and the hobby turned into a full-time gig. Fifteen years and thousands of carvings later, his work today has a devoted following around the world through his site ministeve.com and at art fairs and galleries in the Midwest and East Coast of the U.S. and now in Europe as well. In collabo-ration with the artist Glenn Gordon he also stages and photographs miniature tableaux of his carvings and he is now bringing his carvings even further to life through his video stop-motion animations, which he writes, produces, directs, and does all the sound effects for, as well as the catering, all solo.Beginning Dreams forever the name place of my studio.

    This vision, this prayer, this way of living, this way of ap-proaching art is to keep seeing new, seeing through new eyes, living for the surprises, living to keep possibilities al-ways available. I have created expressive abstractpaintings of personal, yet universal journeys. I have created dimensional works portraying humor, healing color and integration of cultural pattern in spiritual guardian sculp-tures. And then I have experienced the creation of inti-mate works quietly documenting Native American histori-cal points of view on hand-held ceramic turtle shells and the experience utilizing Adinkra symbols as universal forms and wisdom talkers as source for communal art alongside school children. Or I help create large scale works trans-forming social public space by bridging earth elements and orchestrated artistic elements with hundreds of artists hands and hearts as one visual transforming mind. The birth of the idea can be as transformative as the birth of the form. The notion that the forms can change position and create a new dialogue, maybe with humor or a surprise of vulnerability and sinceritythe interactive viewer can create their personal dialogue for the playing forms, thus becoming part of the art.

    Each year four top awards (Best Of, Second Place, Third Place, Merit) and invitational awards are given to Main Exhibitors and one top award to the Community Showcase. All artists are eligible for The Spirit of Powderhorn award. A panel of three judges, of varying art backgrounds (one of whom is a Powderhorn Park Neighborhood resident), is chosen by the Art Fair Committee to jury the Main Exhibitors and select award winners. One judge is chosen by the Community Showcase Committee to select the Spirit of Pow-derhorn award winner (the artist whose work best represents the unique qualities found in the Powderhorn Park Neighborhood), and Best of for the Community Showcase.

    Honorable MentionLaura Christensen, Clay

    I didnt always know I wanted to be a potter. I discovered clay quite by accident and fell in love immediately. After discovering pottery in college, I spent 6 years with another potter as an apprentice learning all I could before setting up my own studio.

    Working on the wheel is a very satisfying, somewhat meditative experi-ence for me. I love watching forms come to life before my eyes. I am drawn to clean lines and graceful curves, with a need for order and func-tionality in my pieces that stems from a passion for math. I strive to make pieces that are calming, inviting and encourage frequent use.

    Spirit Of PowderhornJulie Crabtree-Pfannes, Fiber

    Julie Crabtree studied textiles, fashion, Art and em-broidery at Mansfield College of Arts, Nottingham-shire, England. After completing a four year degree course she taught at the College before emigrating to Canada, and now calls Northern Wisconsin home.

    Utilizing the sewing machine as a drawing tool she works freely over the canvas with stitches to build up textural landscapes, adding hand stitching and fur-ther textured effects with a number of experimen-tal embroidery techniques. Which includes distress-ing, burning, felting, dyeing fabrics and threads use of soluble stabilizers and some painting, as well as the more traditional techniques.

    Inspired by the ever changing landscapes throughout the seasons, a constant inspiration, to capture the texture into either realism or some abstract piece based on the color and texture of nature.

    In addition to fine art for framing, Julie creates her textured and landscape pieces for accessories, cards and has work published in several magazines, books, cover for a CD, and was a guest on PBS tv, "Sewing with Nancy". Her work can be found at juried art shows, where she has won numerous awards, galleries and locally at the Textile Center.

Things come to a head when - in addition to all the exotic animals that Nalah has placed in the house a pink tiger follows her home from the zoo and creates havoc.

    CityKid Java, a local coffee company that gives all of its profits back to kids is creating coffee art to commemo-rate its 10th anniversary at the 2012 Powderhorn Art Fair on August 4, 2012.

    To celebrate this landmark, ten kids and three art teach-ers are teaming up to make coffee art that replicates the iconic spoonbridge and cherry in the Minneapolis Sculp-ture Garden. By using 3,500 cups of coffee and 71 gallons of milk, the coffee art will span 17.5 feet x 13 feet.

    Similar to the Mona Lisa coffee art made at the Rocks Aroma Festival in Sydney, the kids and teachers will place the cups alongside each other to create an uncanny aerial view image to celebrate CityKids contribution to south Minneapolis youth.

    CityKid Java was created in 2002 in partnership with Urban Ventures Leadership Foundation, a non-profit or-ganization based in South Minneapolis with the mission to revitalize a community in desperate need since 1993. CityKid Java sprang forth as a creative business venture to help Urban Ventures social programs become more self-sustaining by selling 100 percent Arabica coffee, with all of its profits going to Urban Ventures.

    Pianos on Parade (POP) is a project that places ar-tistically transformed pianos around the Twin Cities in various outdoor locations for all to play and enjoy. POP is a joint collaboration between Keys 4/4 Kids, a local nonprofit organization that sells donated pianos, and the offices of Mayor Chris Coleman and Mayor R.T. Rybak. From mid-July to mid-September, the Twin Cities will play host to twenty unique and colorful pi-

    anos, each transformed by local students and artists. Whether on a street corner or in a favorite park, these pianos will spur residents and visitors to spontane-ously engage with art, music, and one another, creating moments of community and highlighting the citys ex-ceptional commitment to music and the arts. To learn more, visit: www.pianosonparade.org.

    By Gayla Ellis

    Powderhorn Park neighborhood in Minneapolis is a vast ar-ray of people, plants, creatures, scenes, and activities. Often the media portray us as criminals or as victims of crime. Amy Wurdock set out to counter these perceptions. She

    organized six others and herself to photograph the neigh-borhood. Since January 1, 2009, Powderhorn365 photogra-phers have posted one photo on the blog per day. Each year has a new weekly team and a pool of guest photographers. The project is now halfway through its fourth year and has recently been approved as a program of Powderhorn Park Neighborhood Association (PPNA).

    Being a P-365 photographer is a unique experience. It is up to that one person to decide which photo gets posted for his or her day. We maintain our autonomy as artists but wel-come input from the community. We need to open our eyes to see what is around us and use our cameras to try to show this to others. Ephraim Eusebio, a 2010 weekly pho-tographer, wrote this about Powderhorn365: This project was amazing to participate in and I am so much more in touch with my neighbors. Each photographer has their own story about the experiences.

    We present an exhibit at the Powderhorn Art Fair every year. We invite you to see what we have this year. A new development is that some P-365 photographers volunteered to take photos for art fair history. Books will be available for viewing or for sale at the event. The 2011 book features: Joey Ford, Rhonda Kist, Satya Varghese Mac, Sadie McKinley, and Michael Wright for the entire year, Anders Gurda for the first half, and Kate Zwicky for the last half. Guest photogra-phers added their own perspectives to the collection. Aria Dominguez designed the book, and Amy Wurdock, Aria, and Gayla Ellis edited it. The book is dedicated to the memory of our beloved poet, Roy McBride.

    Our books are available for sale at PPNA. We welcome do-nations to help support the project by volunteer photogra-

    I did the fair for 17 of the last 20 years. The first time I came to the fair I was planning to get myself a tent and join the the traveling art show artists. The 1st artist I encountered in the park as I came down the hill was a neighbor from Elliot Ave who was show-ing her unique cloth dolls from the comfort of an over stuffed chair under a cottonwood. The fair got a little more uniform as the years progressed but it continues to be neighborhood driven and oper-ates with a light spirit. I spent 10 years serving on the committee and I always enjoyed the Sunday morning shouted announcements with instruments and noisemakers celebrating the winners of the fair awards. I have moved my art life back indoors but I

    loved the years of setting up in the shade and sharing my work with the neighborhood and the visitors to our beautiful park. I now teach doll making, surface design and other classes out of my NE studio, as well as showing my work at indoor shows and galleries.

    Longtime Art Fair Committee Members Acknowledged

    I fell in love with the Powderhorn Art Fair in 1999, the first time I did the show. There seemed to be such synergy between the park, the neighborhood and the artists. The art fair has its own special spirit with its diverse musicians, artists and patrons. It is the only fair I know of that reinvests its profits directly into building park pro-grams for its own community. I knew then that I wanted to help the show to grow yet keep its community philosophy. I greatly enjoyed my 11 years on the art fair committee. I have lately been working on new paintings and have been painting some pet portraits in my studio.

    With deepest gratitude to those I served.

    I have been a longtime resident of the Powderhorn neighborhood and a long-time volunteer with the Powderhorn Art Fair. I am proud and passionate about the programs promoting art in my neighbor-hood. This year I am the Art Fair Com-mittee Chair and co-coordinator for the Community Arts area.

    I have been a practicing artist for over 50 years. I enjoy working en plein air, in all mediums, and my studio has hosted a figure drawing group every Sunday after-noon for almost 37 years. My images talk about light and observing nature as She makes art. I never tire of chasing those colors that can drift like perfume, or bolt out of the darkness, that make a drama of the moment never to be repeated exactly the same another time.

    From the very first year -- the Powder-horn Art Fair was a perfect fit for me: a beautiful, verdant setting in my artistic neighborhood, run by artists, and helping fund programs in the park.

    I jumped in after that first year -- to be-come a part of the committee that ran the show -- and continued to be a part of it for many years, as well as jurying into the show. This year is a new adventure for me -- I am taking a break from Pow-derhorn to do a show in Colorado that I have always wanted to do.

    The special spot in my heart, and around the lake will be open for another artist to experience the magic that is Powderhorn.

    On Sunday evening, May 27, 2012, Walker Commu-nity Church at the corner of 16th Avenue South and 31st Street was hit by lightning during a fierce storm and the building burnt to the ground. While the con-gregation regroups and plans the future, wed like to acknowledge Walkers tremendous impact on the Powderhorn community.

    In the mid 1960s Bryan Peterson arrived as pastor with a social justice agenda. Walker quickly became a center for community activism and community building. Over the next 45 years, this fertile seed-bed would help spawn such organizations as KFAI Community Radio, In the Heart of the Beast Puppet and Mask Theater, the Sustainable Resources Center, Powderhorn Pottery Program, Powderhorn Fire-works Safety Patrol, a Native American sweatlodge and Pastor Roger Lynns aniti-prostitute patrol. Un-til the fire, Walker hosted free community meals, a twice-yearly rummage sale, an annual holiday art fair

    and many other sacred/secular activities.

    Walkers open-door rental policy has welcomed a Muslin groups Ramadan gatherings, neighborhood cel-ebrations, offices and meetings for community groups and countless theater, music and cultural events.

    As the people of Walker Church rebuild, we wish them well and thank them for the years of service to our community.
