Colfax Art Walk

Presented by the Colfax Art Walk Committee, PlacerArts and Sierra Vista Arts, Colfax Art Walks featu

The Colfax Art Walk came into being to promote Colfax businesses and Sierra Foothills artists to the larger Foothills community. The members of the Art Walk committee, along with PlacerArts and the Sierra Vista Art Center, recognized that the conjunction of art and businesses could serve the greater needs of the Colfax community not only by increasing local revenues but also by increasing the awareness amongst the wider Foothills community of exceptionally talented artists.

Hello Folks; I hope you're having a wonderful day finding creative ways to enjoy this week's record-breaking temperatures! My oldest son and his family from North Carolina arrived on July 3 for a three-week visit. It has been much hotter here in California than it is at his home, which is quite unusual. We will all be escaping the heat together indoors at the Gomez Art Gallery in Auburn this Wednesday evening, and you are invited to join us.
I'm honored that my Plein Air Watercolor, titled "Hazy Forest along the Western States Trail", has been accepted to the Natural Wonders Plein Air Show. The exhibit will be on display from July 6-21 at the General Gomez Arts Center & Gallery, located at 808 Lincoln Way, Auburn, California.
An Open Reception to meet the 27 artists will be held this Wednesday, July 10th from 4-7 pm at General Gomez Arts. The exhibit is in collaboration with Placer Artists Tour and Placer Land Trust and showcases original artworks for sale by Placer County artists and photographers.
The evening will include music and delicious food and drink options. The artworks will be awarded as follows: Best of Show, Placer Land Trust, Gomez Gold, and People's Choice (selected during the reception by your vote and others attending).
I look forward to seeing you soon.
