Created specifically for this exhibition with support from the City of Bothell Arts Commission, Sammamish River is a 564-piece collaborative work, including 104 pieces contributed by community members that were inspired by the river in some way. The shape reflects the course of the river as it passes through the city of Bothell, a portrait of place shaped by our collective experiences.
Community contributors to Sammamish River: Michele Aldrin, Elliott Carmel, Joy Hagen, Gina Hanzsek, Soo Hong, Bailley Krimmel, Arnie Lund, Craig Moore, Corinn Rutkoski, Piyali Sarkar, Amy Scherer, Lucia Shadduck, Roman Shadduck, Nancy Shaffer, Courtney White
