Elina Peduzzi had a fascinating evolution to her artistic journey and jewelry career. Early influences flourished, even while she had a diplomatic career in Venezuela. Like many of us, the pull to her heart's work was strong and she pursued an MFA in Spatial Arts to advance her sculptural work and continue expanding her jewelry talents. We are all lucky for it!

We’ll gather, sip, do a creative project, create with flowers, get linked with permanent bracelets and celebrate summer vibes.

Jamie Kelty
Peripheral Visions
June  6, 2023 Opening Reception
5:30-7:30pm

Jamie's work features people–characters she observes and imagines–whom she has drawn in her sketchbook and cut out as part of the textural collage work she employs. The layered universe she creates in each collage or mixed media painting may also share inspiration from the city of San Francisco, her love of mid-century furniture and art history. 

Join us for a super fun and diverse 2-day line up at the 2nd Mill Valley Music Festival! Poet and/the Bench will once again have a booth in the Manzanita Marketplace and we'll be launching new fun and pretty things, including permanent jewelry!

When we created a map of "our curated guide to some of our favorite places," we knew we would include some of our favorite Marin-based hikes. Here's 3 and why we love them.

We were interviewed recently by the always charming and delightful Nish Nadaraja. Check out this feature in Pacific Sun about our passion for curation and connection! 

Mill Valley, our charming village where Poet and/the Bench headquarters are located, has been featured as a travel destination in quite a few publications recently. We want to share a few notables in case you're visiting Mill Valley.
