Native Art Popup at Fringe

Jason LaClair
Kaa Shayee

Two of Whatcom county's extraordinarily talented artists sold their art for this Labor Day market at Fringe Brewing. On a laid back end of summer warm day Jason LaClair of Lummi and Kaa Shayee, a Tlingit artist local to the area, boldly displayed their phenomenal Coast Salish and line form design through jewelry, prints and stickers. The two artists had recently wrapped up their 160' "Indigiversal" mural at Waypoint Park in Bellingham, WA, positively moving beyond some of the controversy due to how the artists were treated by the Paper Whale organizers of the event. They have emerged more insightful on the other side of that experience with this lovely event organized by the City of Ferndale Arts Commission and preparing for the upcoming Art in Action also organized by the Arts Commission.
