July-August Art Show and Reception

The Representational Art League will display its work at the Arcata Marsh Interpretive Center during July and August. The show will focus on the unique biodiversity of the Marsh landscape. Drawn together in friendship over the decades, the League—founded in 1987--is dedicated to the rendering of the beauty found in everyday life. Members meet once a month to critique work, plan community outreach, and prepare for upcoming shows. Participating artists include Pat Cahill, Michelle Murphy-Ferguson, Susan Strope, Elsie Mendes, Lois Andersen, Steven Lemke, Andrew Daniel, Jody Bryan, Paul Rickard, Dolores Terry, Julia Bednar, and Camille Regli. The public is invited to a free reception to view the art and enjoy refreshments on Sunday, July 7 from 1 to 4 p.m. Shows featuring local art and photography are sponsored by Friends of the Arcata Marsh. The Interpretive Center is located at 569 South G Street in Arcata and is open to the public Tuesday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturday and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Monday between 1 and 5 p.m. For more information, call (707) 826-2359.
