Collette Webster has opened FAD Gallery in Mancos.<\/span>The Journal<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p>

After living in Mancos for eight years, Collette Webster has opened FAD Gallery at 107 Grand Ave.<\/p>\n

FAD stands for \u201cFurniture, Art and Design.\u201d The gallery will showcase three-dimensional art such as pottery, jewelry and furniture rather than paintings, Webster said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love art you can touch,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

The gallery held a grand opening ceremony on April 30 and opened for business this week. Webster hopes to be open six days a week as well as during Grand Summer Nights, which will be held in Mancos during the last Friday night of the month throughout the summer.<\/p>\n

Though Webster said the gallery is still a work in progress, she said she hopes to fill the space within the next month and grow throughout the year.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m hoping to bring people who are looking for different kinds of art, especially with furniture,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

She also hopes to feature visiting artists in the gallery and host an opening at least once a month, sometimes with live music. Later this month, she\u2019ll feature two artists from Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. In July, Webster has a show lined up that will feature local makers of musical instruments, including xylophone-maker Richard Cook and guitar craftsman Greg Wild.<\/p>\n

Webster said she is working with artists who make handmade furniture, as well as high-quality used and upcycled furniture. She also hopes to showcase work from metal, fiber and jewelry artists.<\/p>\n

A pottery and ceramics artist, Webster previously owned an art gallery in Moab. But she had her eyes on the Mancos space for a few years, she said. The building previously housed a bike shop and a hat shop. With a high ceiling and lots of natural light, Webster was able to get creative when designing the inside of her gallery, she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love the windows and being able to build these big, creative displays,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Webster said she\u2019s looking forward to helping promote the arts in Mancos, with Grand Summer Nights and monthly art walks.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s definitely an art town,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s really exciting.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
