Caroline Holm is an artist and writer whose first book of illustrated poetry and prose, Woodland, was released February of this year. Like much of her work, Woodland centers around awe for the natural world and what it has to teach us. Struggling from a young age with chronic illness, she found the earth to be a cornerstone for true healing of the heart and body. Much of her work is drawn from time spent in the deep woods, ancient wisdom literature and with the aid and insights gleamed from plant medicines.

She lives and works in Salem, Oregon with her husband, Joshua, and feral daughter, Jane. For more info about Caroline and to stay up to date with events and projects, visit carolineholmpoetry.com

UPDATED Statement on Healthy Spaces from Art at the Cave: We want to provide a healthy space to enjoy art. We have been practicing safety precautions such as regular cleaning, social distancing and mask wearing.

As a result of the removal of the mask mandate effective March 12, 2022, we will no longer require the wearing of masks. We encourage you to continue to wear a mask if it makes you feel more comfortable, and we will supply masks and hand sanitizer at the door. As social distancing has become a norm, please be mindful some will still need a bit of personal space while inside the gallery.

Art At The CAVE was established in 2017. Located at 108 E. Evergreen in downtown Vancouver, the CAVE is free and open to the public Tues-Sat, 10am-4pm, and on First Fridays when it remains open until 8:00pm. The gallery is also available to host events. Visit the website at artatthecave.com or contact gallery@artatthecave.com for more information.
