January 2 Westside Art Openings

At the Nine gallery, artist Lisa Jarrett has Shine. Recommended. Donna Gottschalk, is a self-taught photographer inspired by the work of Arbus. A feminist lesbian activist beginning in age 18, she began to photograph her world in 1970's New York, and continued it across the country into her 60's. The photographs became available from her archives in 2018, resulting in the show Brave, Beautiful Outlaws, first at the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Gay and Lesbian Art. The work now travels to Portland. Along with it is Kavanah by Hannah Altman: photographs abstractly inspired by the Jewish diaspora, memory, and narrative. At Blue Sky Gallery www.blueskygallery.org 122 NW 8th Map 6PM-9 Free

Many of the galleries have openings later in the month or group shows.


Everett Lofts are recommended as always. It is always evolving and there are many strong spaces. It's easier for you to see them all than for me to write suggestions. Some close as early as 9PM. At the Everett Lofts 625 NW Everett. Bounded by NW Everett, Broadway, Flanders and 6th Map closing ranges from 8-9PM
