Artists’ Circle is a non-profit art organization of fine craft artists who live and work in Minnesota and western Wisconsin. Annually they produce an Art Fair at the College of St.Catherine in St. Paul, Minnesota. The show is organized and run by artists for artists. The art fair showcases local artists from the upper Midwest. Artists’ Circle serves as an educational advocate for fine crafts; plus it promotes venues for the exhibition and sale of work by local professional fine craft and fine art artists. Originality, craftsmanship, creativity, skillful use of materials, as well as presentation and sale-ability are the professional criteria considered.
Art at St. Kate’s features quality work by over 90 juried artists who create and sell fine crafts including basketry, clay, fiber, glass, leather, jewelry (gold, silver, pewter, stone, beaded), metal, paper, wood, mixed media, as well as fine arts including painting, watercolor, photography, printmaking, and sculpture.

” I work with white stoneware clay and fire to mid range temperatures in electric oxidation firing. I love to experiment with the interactions between slips, stains and glazes. More recently I’m exploring Asian brushwork and imagery on the surfaces of my work. ” — Kate Daly
