It has been a few weeks since Arts Walk and I almost forgot that my chess set was included in an article in the Olympian. 10 things you won’t want to miss at the 2017 Fall Arts WalkA twist on chess
When he received a chessboard with no pieces, Chris Gizzi of Olympia wanted to make his own. But what he envisioned — pieces that incorporated spiraling double and triple helixes — would have been so difficult to fabricate that he set the idea aside. Now, thanks to the increased availability of 3D printing, he’s put his own twist on traditional pieces. See Gizzi’s work — along with paintings by Lonnie L. Spikes Jr. and Steven Suski — at Hot Toddy, 410 Capitol Way S. Hot Toddy also will host music by The Open Letters at 7:30 p.m. Friday. MIXED MEDIA

I will have two chess sets on display at Hot Toddy for the Fall 2017 ArtsWalk. In addition to examples of the large and small sets printed in transparent PLA material, the display will also include one very large rook (supporting the smaller set), a black acrylic bishop, a transparent acrylic rook and a stainless steel knight. Be sure to stop by this Friday evening.
