I like to make lists. I am interested in collections, of ideas and things. I think we, as artists, create worlds that mimic the outside, trying to make sense out of chaos. I am not interested at all in perfection but rather in the gulf between what we imagine and what actually happens. I think mistakes are worthy of exploration. It’s as simple as seeing what happens when you put energy into something- but without expectation. Making the work is a chance to take a risk- my involvement happens when I collaborate with the materials and the viewer steps into that collaboration when the work goes into the world. A sort of gift-giving occurs, I don’t know what it is going to be, but the work always gives a gift back to me. I like working with textiles because in the time that it takes to do the stitching there is a lag time, a time to think. I am interested in the idea of labor and exploring that in my work. Discovering my identity though the labor. My work comes together as a series of tapestries, of all sizes, combining materials and language, a tapestry if you will. I have exhibited in New York at the Clocktower, in Los Angeles in Echo Park and here at the Banana Factory. I have had my flash fiction and poetry published in Elk and Ethel, both zines. I have received grants from the Rauschenberg Foundation and the Gottlieb Foundation.

Consugar Ceramics
consugarceramics.com, instagram: @consugarceramics
My name is Madeline Consugar, and I create pottery inspired by the natural world. Each piece I make is a conversation between the earth and the everyday; clay becomes both a canvas and a vessel for storytelling. I focus on functional pottery because I believe in the beauty of the simple moment. A handmade mug, thoughtfully crafted and cradled in your hands during your morning coffee, can turn a routine into a ritual. There is something deeply meaningful in knowing that an object was formed slowly, with care, intention, and joy. I want my work to bring people closer to the small, quiet pleasures of life—like the warmth of a cup, the curve of a bowl, or the whimsy of a flower underneath a glaze.

Cosmic Thing
https://www.instagram.com/cosmicthing.jewelryco/ , https://cosmicthingco.etsy.com
Cosmic Thing was created by Kathleen located in Easton, Pennsylvania. What began as an exploration of polymer clay has grown into a colorful, otherworldly collection of wearable art, small-batch soy candles, fine art, hand-carved wood crafts and thoughtfully made pieces inspired by pattern, nostalgia, and nature. My work is rooted in the idea that small objects can hold big personality. Each piece is shaped, patterned, sanded, and assembled by hand, making many pieces one of a kind or available only in limited quantities. I’m drawn to intricate details, uplifting color palettes, retro-inspired shapes, celestial themes, and the mysterious ways patterns show up in both art and life. Through Cosmic Thing Co. and MOON BASE Candles, I hope to create pieces that feel bold, warm, playful, and adventurous—items that help people feel more like themselves. Every piece is made with care and intention for people who are creative, confident, curious, and relentlessly fascinating.

Fanciful handmade items specializing in fiber, wood, and paper arts. I enjoy working in lots of different media, and most frequently use wool, paper, and wood through techniques including origami, needle felting, and laser cutting.

Insects, animals both real & fanciful, and celtic knots all make regular appearances. I also teach classes & workshops with ArtsQuest, NCC, and Bloomery Art, where people can try out new art techniques and develop their own creativity.

I am a local artist, born and raised in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, creating under the artist name The Crochet Girlie. I create fun, modern crochet pieces designed to bring a little extra joy to everyday life. I make unique, thoughtful gifts for the people on your holiday shopping list. What began as a creative escape grew into a passion for turning my love of games, movies, hobbies, music, and pop culture into unique, functional crochet creations. My pieces range from cozy and practical items to playful, nostalgic designs, offering shoppers something a little different from the traditional holiday gift. I’ve also built a growing community around my work on social media, where many of my crochet creations have gained significant traction on TikTok and reached thousands of fellow crochet and handmade-art enthusiasts. As a local artist, I’m excited to bring The Crochet Girlie to the holiday market and offer shoppers handmade gifts that are fun, personal, and made to be enjoyed long after the holiday season.
Dalbergia Vida
www.dalbergiavida.com, IG: dalbergia_vida, Pinterest: dalbergiavida, FB: dalbergiavida
Handcrafted, Unique, Repurposed. In the spirit of sustainability & repurposing, we gather the wood for this collection from the World-Renowned Guitar Factory here in Nazareth, PA (Martin Guitar). They responsibly source exotic woods from all over the world in the creation of their guitars. During the production of a guitar, the full cut of wood is not utilized. These unused pieces are then collected by us & turned into one-of-a-kind art pieces & unique jewelry. We also repurpose Abalone pearl that is used in custom guitar inlays, creating stunning elegant pieces. Our jewelry & art is 100% handmade & crafted here locally. What does “Dalbergia Vida” mean? “Dalbergia” is the genus of the wood species featured in our collection, most of which originate in South America. In tribute to this heritage, we give our art pieces Spanish names. The word “Vida” in our name—meaning “life”—reflects our commitment to renewal: the wood we use is salvaged & repurposed, given a second life through art. Without our intervention, this beautiful material would otherwise be destroyed.

Gable Young
gableyoungart.com, @ gable_young_art
My sculptural pieces are first wheel thrown and then altered. I often add hand-built additions to these enclosed forms. They are then bisque fired and painted or sprayed with various chemicals. The piece is then placed in a sagar with natural materials and slow fired in an outdoor kiln in wood for several days. This process allows the forms to take on the natural colors found in the earth. The pieces themselves are a play between function and fine art. They are indeed vessels, often with holes for holding various natural dried objects, such as feathers, dried seed pods, and grasses. It is a play and a collaboration with the buyer who then creates a “new” piece with the addition of their choice of found objects. I like the fact that it is not a stagnant piece of art, but one which can have aspects of change. The vessels often contain a political statement, feeling, or satirical theme. Although a major part of these pieces is made from clay, they often have a bit of other elements added. Sometimes plastic figurines, stones, branches, or even toys. I continue to create pieces such as wall panels , mugs, butter bells, and wall pockets which are also nature inspired but a more afforadable option of my work that is appropriate for a small space. I also make oil paintings which are also nature inspired.

Raven and Root Studio
www.instagram.com/ravenandrootstudio, www.facebook.com/ravenandrootstudio, www.ravenandrootstudio.com
I create porcelain earrings, pendants, necklaces, bracelets, pins, bookmarks, magnets, and ornaments using underglaze transfers. Each pair is modern, playful, and a little bit silly, bringing a sense of humor and personality to a timeless material. They are small-scale pieces of wearable art that balance craftsmanship with fun. My work is unique because it combines fine art techniques, like working with porcelain and underglaze, with an approachable, whimsical sensibility. I don’t take myself too seriously, and that joy and lightness come through in each piece. It’s ceramic work that doesn’t ask to be put on a pedestal; it just wants to be worn and enjoyed. As a maker, I am intuitive, experimental, and constantly evolving. I have spent years fostering creativity in others as an art teacher, and returning to the studio has reconnected me with my own creative instincts. I value process as much as product, and I am always open to play and exploration in my work. My creativity is driven by a lifelong love for making, teaching, and finding joy in small things. Whether I’m in the classroom or the studio, I am fueled by curiosity and a desire to bring creativity into everyday life. Making these earrings is a way to channel that passion into something tangible and shareable. My work brings together skilled craft, artistic expression, and a playful spirit. I bring an educator’s thoughtfulness, an artist’s eye, and a passion for making. My earrings are more than accessories; they are little moments of delight made to brighten someone’s day.
