Current Exhibitions and Call for Art:
Solvang… California Nature Art Museum
March 7- September 6
This show iscentered around species and landscapes “on the edge” of survival. It would highlight plant and animal species that are endangered, or threatened, or even extinct. ALSO areas of land set aside for conservation & preservation of these species. We would be presenting this show with the purpose of bringing attention to the beauty and fragility of some of California’s disappearing species, as well as promoting better protection and stewardship of our ecosystems. We can choose any natural spaces that we feel have been dedicated to the protection and preservation of nature.

Stories of the Unexpected, Slightly Odd, and Strangely Wonderful in Art History by Jennifer Dasal is a book that explores fascinating, lesser-known stories behind famous artists and artworks, making art history accessible and entertaining for both novices and enthusiasts. Evolving from her popular podcast, the book covers topics like the CIA’s use of Abstract Expressionism, the mystery of whether painter Walter Sickert was Jack the Ripper, and the scandalous beginnings of Impressionism, all presented in a humorous and engaging way.
a comprehensive 2021 biography that explores the life and work of Julia Morgan, California’s first licensed female architect, known for designing over 700 buildings, most famously Hearst Castle. Drawing on previously unpublished letters, diaries, and interviews, the book offers a detailed look at her groundbreaking career, her relationship with William Randolph Hearst, and her personal life, presenting her as a resilient and visionary artist who overcame significant obstacles.
