Join us for the opening reception of Archeology: Hidden Treasures, a solo exhibition by local artist Martha Channer.
This installation explores the unity of opposites through the metaphor of an archaeological excavation. Blending symbolism, fantasy, and personal vision, the exhibition invites viewers on a journey beneath the surface - both literally and psychologically - to uncover the hidden landscapes of the unconscious mind. Through a series of mixed-media works, sculptural elements, and installation components, each discovery reveals another layer in a larger narrative while standing as a unique work in its own right.
FREE & OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

The race course will follow a jeep road to the top of the shield volcano, then around the Crater Rings.
We also have a 2.9 mile out-and-back course that leads to a spectacular view of the east crater. This is a great option for those who would like to experience the craters, but don't really want to travel all the way around them on a rough and challenging course.For more info visit: www.cratercrawl.org Crater Rings National Natural LandmarkMain Cinder Butte Road, Mountain Home.
