RAW Natural Born Artists, the national forum for visual, performance and fashion artists, will produce its second Boise event next week. Solstice celebrates the rite of spring and features a whole new mix of artists. Youll see fire dancer Rose Ward, belly dancer Cecelia Rinn and the Starbelly dancers, the pole dancers of Ophelia Studio, jewelry and more by sculptor Amber Conger, 3-D fabric artist Randy Rasmussen, and fashion shows from Bourgeois Chic, pictured, and Asuyeta. Cocktail attire is requested, so you know there will be a no-host cocktail bar.
