The Bolo Show is a contemporary look at a classic American jewelry object. Bolo ties from 20 artists are on display in the gallery, June 22– July 20, 2019. From traditional to modern, these mixed-media pieces are one-of-a-kind and very cool.
Please join us Friday, July 19, 6-9pm for the Bolo Show Closing Party! Meet some of the artists, enjoy drinks and snacks and see the bolos in action during the bolo catwalk! FREE for the whole family and kids are welcome. We’ve found kids love a good runway show;-).

WHAT IS THE HOUSE RULES!? It’s a celebration of studio members, helpers and employees; all those vital to the success of Danaca Design. This event features works in the gallery by these outstanding people. Traditionally it has been a fundraiser for our Jewelry Art Stimulus Scholarship however this year we’ve decided to change it up a bit, instead we will use this event to raised funds for the American Civil Liberties Union.
