The Cambria Center for the Arts (CCA) presents a new exhibition, The Local Scene—Sightings Along the Central Coast, which focuses on local land- and seascapes and hangs at 1350 Main St., Cambria, through Feb. 23 (gallery hours are Tuesday through Sunday noon to 4 p.m.). The public is invited to an artists’ reception on Saturday, Jan. 11 (4:30 to 6 p.m.; free and includes entertainment and appetizers. Wine is available to purchase).
According to organizers, “This show is inspired by the images, ranging from our sweeping coastlines to, perhaps, a vintage signpost. Work may be rendered in any medium to celebrate our wondrous part of the world.”
Holly McCain’s painting, Beautiful Cambria Coast, looks north up the coastline at a series of points stretching into the distance with a hint of fog lingering over the surf line. Diane Moore’s The Fence is a lively watercolor depicting tall grasses growing around a picket fence.
The show is presented by the Cambria Center for the Arts Mural, CCA’s first community mural located on the Cutruzzola Vineyards tasting room wall, which was a collaborative effort of 50 volunteers and inspired by Tigg Morales’ design.
