| Dear Friends of Eureka Thyme,
As most of you know, we are now located in the heart of Eureka Springs, near the Basin Park at the corner of Spring and Center Streets. Although we are in a different location, we are still an outlet for the creations of a wide variety of local artists and craftspeople. Here is a preview of some events happening during the May Fine Arts Festival. Visit Eureka Springs often to catch the scattered joy!!

Smoke Drawing Show
Ed Lohrum’s smoke drawings are reminiscent of the earliest known art: that which was left on cave walls by prehistoric man. By first applying a sooty smoke to mat board and then etching a scene in that smoke, Lohrum frees the art from the soot. Join us to meet the magician who creates these wonders from 6 to 8 p.m. on May 2. Most galleries in Eureka Springs will be having shows throughout the month of May, so plan on spending lots of time here!!

Art of Luminaria
Peter Wooten is a man of many talents! His pureĀ and perfectly-scented soy and palm candles have become a must-have for the discerning candle connoisseur.
The luminaria which he creates have reached such a degree of subtle beauty that we feel he must be celebrated during this month-long art festivalĀ Peter will be explaining his process on May 9 from 6 to 8 p.m. His creations are always available at Eureka Thyme.

Dailey Show
Maureen Dailey’s unique sculptures feature found objects and glass. She exemplifies the spirit of Eureka with her unbounded bliss as reflected in her creations. Join us from 6 to 8 p.m. on May 16 to meet Maureen at a reception in her honor. The art galleries of Eureka Springs join in welcoming you to various shows and activities. There will be music and art around every corner and up every hill. Enjoy!!

The Starbird Collection
This show will introduce you to Ken’s exquisite ceramic sculptures and Sandy’s surprising primal images. Ken Starbird has attained such a distinctive signature in ceramics that his sculptures have the look of emerging from the hand of a wizard.
Sandy Wythawai Starbird’s images speak of that which is hidden behind the mask and the connectedness of all things. Shown here is her Spirit Seeker. Their cool creations will be on display May 22 through 24, with a special reception being held in their honor on May the 23rd from 6 to 8 p.m.
