MillerCeramics Moves Into Soulard Art Market

Visual and ceramic artist, SANDY MILLER joins "SAM" - Soulard Art Market and Contemporary Gallery as a "resident artist. SAM is a unique gallery and studio complex located in the historic Soulard neighborhood of St. Louis, MO 63104 at 2028 S. 12th St. at Russell Blvd. This co-op gallery features over 12 core resident artist working in various medias (painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, jewelry, glass, fiber, and mixed media) and with Sandy's work, now ceramics. In addition to the resident artists, the main gallery holds juried exhibitions of local artists, features special artists' work on some weekends, live entertainment for exhibition openings, and special workshop classes on occasion.

When talking about SAM, Sandy said - "Up to now, I have been storing my ceramic and framed work in crates and closets where it isn't available to the public until I get into a show. I frequently have people ask me where they can see or buy my work and I haven't been able to give a firm answer. Juried group shows I enter occur at variable timeframes, just allow me to show one or two pieces, and require application and jury processes. Now I have a permanent space I can direct fans to; show a larger body of work; eliminate packing and hauling crates of ceramics to art fairs; and not incur potential breakage as a result of frequent transporting. Best of all, this allows me more time to do my artwork with the potential to sell. The fact that I have an established gallery space with the support of SAM's other dynamic artists solves a lot of problems for me. And the Soulard location is ideal for me. Not only close to home, it allows fans and friends to make an event of coming to see the art at SAM, then going to lunch or dinner at one of the great restaurants in Soulard."

WINTER hours (Nov.-March) are Friday 6pm-10pm; Saturday - 12pm-6pm; and Sunday - 12pm-6pm.

SUMMER hours (Apr.-Oct.) are Thursday and Friday 6pm-10pm; Saturday - 12pm-8pm; and Sunday - 12pm-6pm.
