Watch Art Happen

Saturday, July 16, 10AM to 2PM


Twenty artists have been selected to exhibit their art with themes inspired by nature. The artists will be exhibiting and offering for sale three of their nature related mixed media art.

On Friday, July 15 from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m., please join us for a reception for the artists and preview sale of their paintings. You will be entertained this evening by a strolling violinist, Olena Komirenko. You are invited to add your special stroke to the ‘progressive painting’ coordinated by artist Karen Wong. Someone in attendance will be the lucky winner of this unique abstract painting. In addition to enjoying the exhibition and talking with the artists, including Elizabeth Murray, you will have the first opportunity to purchase the exhibited art. You will enjoy chocolate desserts with compatible wine tastings. Enjoy a delightful time at Gamble Garden with friends, music, art, wine, and chocolate. It doesn’t get much better than this for a summertime evening outing. Reservations are required–tickets $25.

As a special treat, Elizabeth Murray, artist and author of Monet’s Passion will be creating her art on Saturday. She uses the same six colors in her pallet for her paintings as Claude Monet used in his masterpieces as described in her book, Monet’s Passion. Many of you attended her presentation in March at the Palo Alto Art Center.
