Our July presenter is Shelly Durica-Laiche of Indio Metal Arts. Shelly creates decorative and functional metal art from reclaimed materials and was the 2023 recipient of the CMAG scholarship to attend the artist collaborative Frogwood. This weeklong immersion joined nearly 60 artists to create artworks using a multitude of media. Shelly will share how she began her journey as an artist, her process of creating, and how Frogwood was a transformative experience.
