Figurative Exposé
Feb. 10 – Apr. 2, 2023
The California Art Club (CAC) was first established in 1909 in Los Angeles, to celebrate the heritage and practices of traditional fine art worldwide. Each year, the Club holds a juried exhibition promoting artists who follow in the tradition of realism and craftsmanship established by the Club’s founders. This year, the Pence will display the Club’s juried exhibit of figurative paintings by select CAC artists, as juried by master painter Dan Schultz.
Tiny Show
Jan. 6 – Feb. 26, 2023
The Tiny Show features “tiny” works of art – modest-sized pieces limited to 5” x 7”. Various local and regional artists were invited to display their small but spectacular creations, including Janet Crittenden, Diana Ormanzhi, Chris Leib, Luiza Maia, and Jordan Hayes, among many others. While the works themselves may be small, the creativity and artistic talent they reveal is immeasurable.
