Dan Friday's "A Salish Sea Story" is a Pacific Northwest experience, where history and contemporary art intersect. Friday is a Native of the Lummi Nation and a lifelong resident of Washington State's Puget Sound region. Drawing from cultural themes and using modern processes, Friday's work is contemporary in format while maintaining basic Native American qualities. Dan has spent the past two decades working with artists such as Dale Chihuly, Paul Marioni, and Preston Singletary. Friday lives in Seattle, where he maintains an independent glass studio and his work can be found in collections around the world. He is also a contestant in season 3 of Netflix's glass blowing competition show "Blown Away", in which he finished in the top four. https://bit.ly/SalishSeaArt
