A beautifully crafted object can enhance any home or workspace. From a mug for your morning coffee, a plate for your toast, a bowl for your favorite soup, a rocking chair to relax in, a colorful pottery jar for storage, a contemporary hand-blown glass vase, a woven textile, a set of candlesticks, or a handbound book, these are not just art pieces, but also practical items that can be used in our daily lives. Art can be all around us in the form of these functional pieces that make our spaces fun. This exhibit will showcase not just art, but art that serves a purpose. Each item, thoughtfully designed and skillfully created, is intended for use. All forms of media are welcome, but the key requirement is that all artwork must be functional in nature.

Artists are invited to submit original artwork for Home Improvement at the Kavanagh Gallery of Fine Line Creative Arts Center, St. Charles, Illinois.
