Inspired... Opening Reception at The Barn Gallery

Join us for the opening reception of Inspired... All are welcome to attend this free event!

The Barn Gallery’s upcoming exhibition is a collection of work created by Teaching Artists working in Yolo County featuring: Angelo Esquivel, Cara Gregor, Emma Montalbano, Katie DelaVaughn, Linda Fitz Gibbon, Melissa Uroff, Mikaela Watson, and Tomás Montoya.

Meet eight of YoloArts’ Teaching Artists and Educators who are constantly activating the cycle of Inspiration in our community in this group exhibition that highlights their professional artistic practices. The common thread between the artists exhibited is their connection to YoloArts’ education programs that work directly with the youth and community members around the county. They have each become masters at working WITH a community instead of FOR a community, encouraging participants to create something incredible of their own.

Inspired… centers what these artists create and celebrates the cycle of inspiration that enables and fuels their own artistic practice. This show includes Ceramic, Digital Illustration, Installation, Mixed Media, Painting, Photography, and Printed art works.

The opening reception for will be held on Thursday, November 20th 5:30-8:00 p.m. with acknowledgements and a raffle of YoloArts Swag at 6:00 p.m. Music by Jon Spivack. Light refreshments and Yolo county wines sponsored by Montgomery and Associates CPAs. The Gibson House will be open during the reception.
