The Cindy & Duncan
Campbell Gallery

SAW_SFF BLDG_CAMPBELL GALLERY 03.jpg

SFF Presents finalized the purchase of the Sisters Art Works building in December of 2019, completing a two-year, $1.4 million capital campaign that included upgrades and additions to our home office and site of our largest Sisters Folk Festival venue. Two of the largest contributors to the campaign were Cindy and Duncan Campbell, who are well-known in Oregon for their philanthropic efforts as founders of Friends of the Children, a nationwide organization dedicated to breaking the generational cycle of poverty. 

 

We are proud to offer the gallery in their name to local and regional artists as a low-pressure space to display their work. We do not take commission on pieces sold in the gallery and we do not charge any fees to host a show.

FROM THE ARTIST:

Many of these drawings were made in the public library on Orcas Island in September of 2023. I made piles of them one after another after being deeply inspired by a book about traditional Norwegian knitwear and finding a digital archive of antique embroidered shawls (Halskläde) from 1800s Norway. 

I have been inspired by the folk art, woodcarving, textiles and traditional clothing of my mother's Norwegian heritage. I was lucky to have grown up around piles of sweaters and a collection of carving made by many generations of our family.

I am a newly full-time artist, currently working and living in my hometown of Sisters, Oregon. As well as making my own artwork, I have a small poetry business with my childhood friend, ceramicist Laura Campbell. I have felt so much love from this community and feel lucky to share my work here. 

Join us for the 4th Friday Art Walk on August 23 from 4:00 - 7:00 pm.
