Nuwave Gallery is thrilled to announce our woodworking show, "Found Form," opening with the First Friday Art Walk on July 5th from 5-8 pm. This exhibition explores the theme of POSSIBILITIES, showcasing the boundless creative potential of woodworking.
Wood, with its inherent versatility and beauty, offers an endless array of possibilities—from intricate carvings to bold, modern designs.

We hope this theme will inspire everyone to imagine the limitless possibilities that woodworking can bring.
