Paint/Sculpt-Out Published on 12 July, 2019

The California Art Club, an ARC Allied Organization, and The Old Mill Foundation will mark the 20th anniversary of their gallery partnership with a celebratory “Paint/Sculpt-Out” at the historic site on Sunday, July 14, from 1 to 4 p.m.

The public is invited to attend this free family-friendly event and watch the artists at work. Children will be provided with supplies for creating their own paintings inspired by The Old Mill and its nearly two-acres of gardens.

The two nonprofit organizations joined forces in 1999 to provide a dedicated venue – the California Art Club Gallery at The Old Mill – for presenting rotating themed exhibitions that showcase contemporary-traditional fine art created by the Club’s artist members, which include many of the country’s most revered representational painters and sculptors.

During the July 14 event, artists associated with the century-old arts organization will be creating new artwork for the display, 20th Anniversary Exhibition: California Art Club Gallery at The Old Mill, which will unveil in September.

For further information about the Paint/Sculpt-Out, contact the California Art Club at (626) 583-9009 or visit californiaartclub.org.

New ARC Associate Living Master Published on 11 July, 2019

ARC is pleased to welcome Sheri Farabaugh as an ARC Associate Living Master™!

"I began painting after careers in tax accounting and biochemistry; I guess that’s just about as far from art as you could get. But a love of drawing and painting as a child and teen stayed with me until time permitted, and from the moment I took my first class as an early retiree, I was committed to learning everything I could about painting."
