The Back Porch Gallery features woodfired sculpture, functional pottery and works on paper made by Cynthia Morelli. Located on the hill above Homer, Alaska, the gallery is the back porch of Cynthia's studio and home. From inside the gallery, you have a view of the anagama style wood kiln where she fires her work. A visit to the Back Porch Gallery offers an intimate glimpse into the creative lifestyle Cynthia and her family have established.
