Join Thya Merz for a lively demonstration of encaustic artmaking, surrounded by Thya's own work inside Jeanette Best Gallery. Thya is a passionate artist who loves to share insights into her creative process. Her work is part of the Showcase 2026 Round One exhibit, on view in the gallery through May 11, so you can also come see it — along with the art of 12 other Northwest artists — during gallery hours from 12 noon to 5 p.m. Thursdays through Mondays.
