North Bend’s Visitor Information Center and Mountain View Art Gallery, 250 Bendigo Blvd., North Bend, presents an artist reception, 3 to 6 p.m. Saturday, June 6.

Mary Miller, award-winning regional veteran photographer, Stacy Murphy, ceramics artist and the Mount Si High School ceramics club are featured artists.

Miller’s cameras have acted as tools of exploration, passports to inner sanctums, instruments for change. Her joyful determination to tell a story through photographic imagery has led her to meet amazing people, journeying to incredible locations, on a mission of wresting some particle of the world from time and space by holding it absolutely still.

Murphy has been throwing clay since 2010, making usable art items for the home and garden. Leaves and some plants are the inspiration for most pieces and using items found in nature as part of the design.

The Ceramic Club of Mount Si High School, will demo in the plaza, and show some of their newest pieces.
