• Blue Sky Oregon Center for the Photographic Arts (Booth CP4) is a 501c3 non-profit photography gallery established in Portland, OR in 1975. For 50 years, Blue Sky’s mission has been to inspire and build community between contemporary photographic artists and our audiences from all over the world through exhibitions, publications, and dialogue.
• One Grand Gallery (Booth B05), founded in 2012 in Central Eastside Portland, will feature new paintings and ceramics by Siberian-born artist Zhanna Tsytsyn. The work on display will explore migration, memory, and transformation through a visual language that merges human, plant, and mythic forms.Rooted in animist traditions and informed by Siberian heritage, the work incorporates masks as sites of transformation—thresholds between the visible and invisible, the ancestral and the emergent.
• J. Pepin Art Gallery (Booth A23), founded in 2013 by artist and curator Jennifer Haskins Pepin, specializes in curated exhibitions, artist representation, and connecting collectors with original artwork by a select roster of contemporary artists.  Its purpose is rooted in the belief that art has the power to connect people, spark conversation, and leave a lasting impact.
