Potpourri returns

The Anchorage Museum, 625 C st., has resumed it's popular Summer Art Potpourrui series, with a revolving roster of Alaska artists selling their work in the atrium from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. each day this month. Museum members get a 10 percent discount on purchases. Artists featured in the lineup include Ed Mighell (clay tiles), Lisa Blanchard (glasswork) and Millie Spezialy (author). We're particulary intrigued by concert pianist Juliana Osinchuk who, starting next Thursday, will be there to show and sell her jewelry. Fiber art, basketry and woodwor are also in the offing.
