In keeping with Touchstones Nelson’s role as a significant cultural anchor for the Nelson district in British Columbia and its goal to support emerging artists and foster an appreciation for the visual arts, Touchstones Nelson has collaborated with the Kootenay School of the Arts (KSA) at Selkirk College for the fourth annual exhibition of KSA graduate student work.

The imagination, variety and skill evident in the student work reflects the ability of these new graduates to incorporate their study of design, drawing, craft history and professional practices with their extensive hands on studio work. KSA, a school of craft and design taught by a faculty of working artists and craftspeople, offers both a 2-Year Diploma program in either Clay or Fibre or Jewellery & Small Object Design studio arts and a 1-Year Certificate in Metal studio arts
