ABOUT THE ARTIST
Melissa Bollero-Ray
Melissa is a self-taught rug tufter specializing in pop art and whimsical abstract art. She began her tufting journey in 2021 and quickly fell in love with the textures and creativity the medium provides. Each piece of rug art is one-of-a-kind, so no two pieces are ever exactly the same. Melissa enjoys designing her own pieces the most, allowing nostalgia and her love of color to fuel each new piece. As an Arkansas native, you can find her most often in person at local pop-ups and craft markets around Northwest Arkansas!
Kaleidoscope CollectivE
KC is a retail shop and community space revolving around local makers and curated decor, furnishings, and gifts. It’s an opportunity to combine my background in visual art and building large furniture pieces and with the curation and style of interior design. We currently have 27 artists who have agreed to be a part of our dream – from painters to jewelry designers, furniture to ceramics, and so much more! Most of our artists have ties to Arkansas, but we also have a few from further abroad who really stood out as masters of their craft. I can’t wait for you to see what we have created together and all we have “in store” for our customers and this community!
