Greetings!
What an incredible, historical way to start to this month of Thanksgiving! To help celebrate, there are two events we would like to tell you about in this edition of Art News.
|
|
Crocker Holiday Art Show, at 6151 H Street, right after Thanksgiving
I am happy to join more than 100 regional artists and craftspeople who will offer our
unique gift items during the Crocker Art Museum's 2008 Holiday Art & Craft Festival.
Support the Crocker and local artists while you shop for everyone on
your holiday list, during the three-day shopping spree right after Thanksgiving.
The artists' creations for sale
include jewelry, gourmet food, ceramics, paintings, holiday items and
more . . . at a range of prices. A Victorian Santa will also be onsite for
photos.
Visit me in booth #112 in the ballroom. I will offer ethnic Christmas and Kwanzaa items, goddess
sculptures, large tile wall sculptures, African masks and dolls,
tribal jewelry and more for your gift-giving pleasure. Join our raffle for a FREE gift certificate as described below. If you do not live in the Sacramento area but want to participate in our raffle, you may e-mail your name, address, and phone number to Kanika@kanika.us.
NOTE: Due to the Crocker's construction plans, the
event will be held at the Scottish Rite Center, 6151 H Street(across
from the main entrance of California State University, Sacramento). COME FOR THE FUN AND THE FINE ART GIFTS!

"Freedom's Sisters" Show Comes to Sacramento!
Freedom's Sisters is the first and most comprehensive traveling exhibit on women in the Civil Rights movement, focusing on the lives and contributions of 20 African American women.
I am so proud to be one of ten local African American female artists who will present our artwork along with this amazing Freedom's Sisters show, from October 25th through January 4th, at the Sacramento Public Library, 828 I Street. NOTE that the art show is on the 4th floor. This sculpture is called "Kanika in Repose."
=========================================================
On December 6, 2008, at 3 PM, on the 4th floor, all of the artists will be available to answer your questions about our art. So please stop by and bring your questions.
========================================================= My Spirituality and Art Blog details the fabulous October 25th red carpet opening reception for the show.
My Survivor Art Blog shows another interesting, heretofore unseen sculpture that is in the show.
