46th Valley Visual Show
Carbondale Arts presents the 46th Annual Valley Visual Art Show, opening Friday, January 17, 2025 and will be on exhibition afterwards each weekday (10am-5pm) at our gallery space located inside The Launchpad (76 S 4th Street) through February 20, 2025.
The Valley Visual Art Show is one of the longest-standing community art shows committed to showing the work of local artists. VVAS began in 1980 as a venue for local artists to share their artwork with the public. VVAS still provides this opportunity, especially for artists new to the area and budding artists, but the show has also become both a salute to the wide variety of artistic talents in our area and a time to bring the artist community together.
This year’s annual show features about 60 Roaring Fork Valley artists and includes two and three dimensional work created in with wide variety of media. We received work from many new artists as well as many long-time local artists from the Roaring Fork Valley.

Transitions: Work by Courtney Cotton & Alissa Davie
September 26 - December 4, 2024
Opening: Thursday, September 26, 5:30-7:30pm
Boulder JCC
6007 Oreg Ave, Boulder, CO
From September 26 through December 4 the Boulder JCC will be displaying work by abstract artists Courtney Cotton and Alissa Davies. Cotton and Davies met when they were both enrolled in a CBCA artist business group and connected over the power of creating art, working with intuition, and using art as a tool for processing life. When Alice Messinger of the Messinger Gallery approached Cotton about having a show, Cotton invited Davies to participate as well, believing that the two would create work that would compliment each other.
Allowing intention and intuition to guide the process is the centerpiece of Cotton and Davies’s show, Transition. Both artists set out with intentions to create pieces the were honest in the internal happenings of their world and centering the power of intuition and the body to execute these intentions. Deeply influenced by the natural world, the work in Transition speaks as well
to the healing and resourcing time in nature can provide. The show serves as a vulnerable and vibrant testament to the power of remaining present to what is and using art-making as a vehicle for processing the present. “This body of work is in direct correlation to a recent move from Boulder and grapples with what makes a home. It explores what it means to put down roots and adapt to surroundings and the rawness that immense transition can expose. Nature is my balm through it all, as well as the process of making”, says Davies. “Setting a clear intention before starting each piece helps me create spatial & organic shapes that invite viewers to contemplate and find peace,” comments Cotton, on the 7 new paintings she made for the exhibition.
Both artists hope that viewers feel an emotional response to the work that allows them to examine their own relationships with their innermost sensations and transitional occurrences. More than ever in our digital age, it is paramount to have in-person experiences with artwork, to stand in front of a piece and have an interchange that cannot be replicated through a screen. All work will be for sale and the Boulder JCC is open for viewing Monday through Friday, 8am-5pm.

Scientists have long known that humans are drawn to patterns. We recognize them as a means of survival and to derive meaning from our surroundings. The basic building blocks of our humanity – our DNA – is a repeating structure that infuses our biology. In this exhibition, patterns are explored by artists in ways that represent our personal, natural, biological, and cultural curiosities. While each artist explores their individual relationship to pattern, all the artists share an intuitive approach and a personal connection they say resonates on a deep level. As Alissa Davies states, “we carry these shapes and patterns around inside of us which we are continually drawn to revisit”. As in nature, forms are ever shifting and state boldly that change is a constant. Disrupting patterns and adopting new definitions can be as useful as creating order. This exhibition presents order and change in relation and both as constants.

Not only have kids’ relationships with one another changed as schooling has flip-flopped between in-person and online - so has the interaction between parents. No longer are there inspiring conversations after drop-off or long leisurely hang-outs after school while the kids play. Parents’ relationships have had to shift with the pandemic, and there is a loneliness, a missing of community, and an aloneness in parenting wins and struggles.
With this in mind, we have come together as a trio to present bodies of work that connect us to one another and to document our inner spaces in an outward way. Our intention is to witness and pay homage to our unique art practices as sources of healing and release - and to showcase them as inspiration for others to process their emotions from the past year. Intuitively created, these works are mirrors, depictions of holding the center amidst the myriad feelings pandemic life has generated.
Please join us on Friday, June 4th 6-9pm for the First Friday in the Nobo Art District. Bring your masks, your picnic baskets, and be ready to stroll the galleries and studios and take in art and live music. Gallery hours are listed above, and we are always happy to arrange private viewings. The show hangs June 1 - 30.
