The book chronicles various media, including paintings, sculptures, photography, and mixed media. Among the artists featured are painter Alfredo Arreguin, photographer Mary Peck, Chimacum artist Tom Jay, Peninsula College professor Michael Paul Miller, glass artist Dale Chihuly, and the late photographer Mary Randlett.

“Strait Art” is a 276-page recollection of the exhibits Seniuk curated, rich with the essays he wrote for the newsletter On Center and photographs of exhibits he envisioned then brought to light.

Donna James, Seniuk’s partner, and his colleague, Kathleen Moles, completed the book in spring 2020, finishing a $40,000 project.

To order a copy of the book and be added to the mailing list for future events, contact Moles at JakeSeniukBookProject@gmail.com.
