A Little History
On June 14, 1997 , the Blue Whole Gallery, an artists co-op with 26 members, opened its doors. The gallery is named after the "blue hole", a term pilots use to describe the atmosphere above sunny Sequim. A play on the concept of "wholeness" conveys the diversity of media and styles of a cooperative endeavor. What started as "an experiment in excellence, a fine art gallery of professional artists pursuing creative originality", it has continued and thrived to this day. Over sixteen exciting years, Blue Whole artists have worked together in a creative celebration of fine art. Works created by our members are as varied and invigorating as the natural splendor of the Olympic Peninsula. We currently have artists working in oil, acrylic and watercolor, mixed media, assemblage, photography, fused glass, metal sculpture, ceramics, wood sculpture and turning, and jewelry. As we begin our 16th year, look for new and exciting shows highlighting the quality and originality of our artist members and special guest artists. With thanks to enthusiastic support from the community, the Blue Whole Gallery will continue to grow and stretch our artistic visions.(1) New logo designed by Karin Anderson & Reggie Consani
