East-West Crossings features “Peoples’ Arts” in different ways. We hold exhibits by various local artists who use different media to express themselves. We also sell their art work on consignment to all our customers and friends.

In addition we offer folk-based arts from other parts from the world. Our current offerings include prayer malas from Tibet and India, jewelry from various indigenous peoples, pashmina shawls from India, hand-embroidered tea cozies from India and candles that depict the cultures from which this art is exhibited. We also offer hand-crafted soaps from the American southwest.

Watch our events calendar for listings of performances and presentations by local artists.

Great Art:  June Ramsay's "Colors Within" Show

June Ramsay will be opening her art show featuring oils and watercolor pencil at East West Crossings on Wednesday, July 7.   June is a multi-media artist who lives in State College. Her exhibit of vibrant and brilliantly colored oil paintings reflects the interplay of hard and soft textures that she learned in working at  hand-dying fabrics and painting over the past 20 years.
