Online exhibit features Lincoln artists

Their design and culinary backgrounds merged to form Cold Hill Studio, and they focus on home goods inspired by mid-century craftsmanship. The exhibition features over 50 artists from 18 states bringing their original ideas to vessels and elevating the art form to celebrate the basic cup in all its many possibilities. Visitors can expect a variety of cups, mugs, bowls, planters, boxes, and even urns in a wide range of price points, from high-end showstoppers to more affordable gift items.
