Join us during the monthly art walk as we celebrate our 4 year anniversary at Charlie Parker Pottery in the Warehouse Arts District. On Feb. 29th, 2012 we purchased our building and took a big leap of faith on a new arts district. We could not be happier we did. In honor of this being our first leap year anniversary we will raffe a Big Bowl of your choice. Come in anytime and buy your raffle tickets. The bowls are on display in our gallery.
Tickets are $2 each or 3 for $5 and you do not have to be present to win.

St. Petersburg's Second Saturday ArtWalk presents over 40 galleries and studios in the Waterfront Arts, Central Arts District, The EDGE District of St. Petersburg, Grand Central District Association and the Warehouse Arts District coming together as one arts destination.
Be the first to see new affordable works of art, as ArtWalk is Opening Night where many galleries and studios premiere new works. Some are only open on ArtWalk, and many offer demonstrations and refreshments. It’s impossible to take in the entire ArtWalk in one night! Plan to drive, walk, or take the trolleys to visit the districts of your choice.
Our free trolley shuttles will have an art guide on board talking about each venue on our one continuous trolley loop. You can park for free on 1st Ave N and 1st Ave S from 15th St to 30th Street. Additional parking will be available for trolley riders in the vacant lot at the Northeast corner of Central Avenue and 29th Street (Please note that this is NOT one of our trolley stops). In addition, venues with large free parking lots are Soft Water Studios, the Morean Center for Clay at the Train Station, the Clay Center of St. Petersburg, and the Dr. Carter G. Woodson African American Museum.
The St. Petersburg Arts Alliance, the Arts Association St. Petersburg Inc., the EDGE District, the Grand Central District, and the Warehouse Arts District associations coordinate St. Petersburg’s Second Saturday ArtWalk. The St. Petersburg Arts Alliance strives to be the community voice, the umbrella organization for the arts -- facilitating artists, arts organizations and creative businesses to work collaboratively; empowering the growth of the arts community, and driving arts-related economic development.

The Leslie Curran Gallery @ ARTicles presents the exhibition ALBUMS: Heike Mueller in conjunction with St Pete's 2nd Saturday ArtWalk.
This solo exhibition of paintings by HEIKE MUELLER opens at the Leslie Curran Gallery @ ARTicles, on Saturday, February 13th, 6-9pm. The Swiss artist returns to the U.S., exhibiting a series of paintings inspired by source material gathered during her sabbatical in St. Petersburg in 2015.
The paintings in the 'Florida Album' have their origin in antique photographs gathered during an extended stay in St. Petersburg, Florida. The bright light and fresh colors of Florida greatly influenced her pallet. In addition, unlikely formal aspects of these vintage family snapshots became of interest. Damaged photographs often contained white spots and blemishes that Mueller then translated into abstraction in many of the resulting paintings. The series of "painted snapshots" captures moments of pleasure, reviving and reclaiming them into modern paintings.
After studying art education and painting in Basel and Amsterdam, Mueller continued to teach and maintain a rigorous studio and exhibition practice while building a family. Widely represented in Germany and Switzerland, Mueller has exhibited extensively in galleries and art fairs throughout Europe for the last 20 years. She now lives and works in Basel with her husband and three sons. This is the first solo exhibition of Heike Mueller's paintings in the U.S.
ALBUMS opens on the evening of February 13th, 6-9pm and continues through March 5th, 2016.
