The Sky Hasn’t Fallen Yet Art Exhibition
11:00 am - 4:00 pm
Stop by the Art From Scrap Gallery for The Sky Hasn’t Fallen Yet, our first exhibition of 2022! Sabaitide is an emerging Asian American artist and writer whose work will show in the Art From Scrap Gallery from Wednesday, January 19th through Saturday, March 19th, 2022.
In her Artist’s Statement, Sabaitide says, “I am still in awestruck wonder how my art and writing is coming together and this art show isn’t even the final product of my imagination, but in the meantime, I am so grateful for the opportunity to share a glimpse of my artistic vision. I first captured my wonder in waves and clouds to illustrate my emotions and thoughts. Then, it’s like the clouds around my head parted ways and a waterfall from the sky graciously appeared to encourage me to think above and beyond the boundaries of my reality.”
The Sky Hasn’t Fallen Yet will have a soft opening due to COVID. You can view the show during the AFS Gallery open hours: Wednesday through Saturday, 11:00 am to 4:00 pm. Please wear a mask in the Gallery.

Stephanie began her journey as an educator over twenty years ago working as a preschool teacher in Washington state for a cooperative preschool program affiliated with Whatcom Community College. She loved observing the wonder and curiosity of the children and bringing them out into nature to explore the natural world. She continued her love for learning and got her teaching license and then her Montessori certification and worked as an elementary teacher in Tribal, Public, and Montessori schools. She collaborated to create a school garden and her students loved it so much that it became a special place where they could garden, read, explore, play, and it provided a safe sanctuary for students to calm down and reset when they were having difficult moments.
Morgan’s mermaid soul is always seeking adventure—swimming a relay across the Santa Barbara Channel and taking the first photo of a newborn orca off Anacapa Island being standout experiences close to home.
