Dayton's Wenaha Gallery will feature junk journals by Des Moines, WA, artist Trudy Love Tantalo. Her show runs from August 11 though September 4.

Trudy Love Tantalo is a Des Moines, Wash. paper artist who creates junk journals, which she defines as "a unique handmade journal made with a variety of papers, with additions and embellishments that make it fun and interesting to use." A lifetime journal user herself, she describes junk journals as the perfect place to write about your day, tuck in a quote of the day, use as a prayer journal or place for Bible verses, draw in, doodle in, keep lists, fill with memorabilia for a travel journal, collage, or . . . do it all.
