Make hot summer art happen yourself this month! Artists (and students of art) are invited to set up and create their work en masse during a "PaintOut"on Thursday evening July 11th, then exhibit what they created during August's Art Happens, and let Livermore see how very many and varied artists we are home to. Art Happens is a monthly tour of several types of cultural arts hosted at downtown businesses on the second Thursday of each month from 6-9pm.
The community can enjoy watching the varied works in progress as artists set up in public areas like pocket parks, sidewalk bench areas or at the Downtown Studios. (Note, as in any use of public property this is not an event for unpermitted art sales, artists can't interfere with anyone else's event or block through traffic, and must clean up after themselves). Art worked on during Art Happens night can be brought to the Downtown Art Studios at 5pm on August 8th to participate in the group Hot Summer Art PaintOut Exhibit.
Other Art Happen events organized by downtown businesses for July 11th are a Downtown Studios Group Exhibit, Open Studios & PaintOut Gathering from 6:30-8:30; a reception for the Encuentros exhibition at the Bankhead Theater featuring works by Edmee Keele, Jordi Camps and Alfredo Mordss beginning at 6pm, a live performance at ABC Music starting at 6pm, Jacob Hankinson's portraiture at Figurehead Gallery beginning at 7pm, Open Mic Poetry at Winemaker's Pour House, the Art of Brewing at Artistic Edge at Blacksmith Square at 6pm, and Storied Nights at Peet's Coffee & Tea at 7:30.
Just a jaunt down First Street on the same night is an opening reception for an exhibition of watercolor works by Bill Paskewitz, Las Positas Art Instructor, at Prudential Realty from 6-9pm.
Art Happens is promoted by the Bothwell Arts Center, a project of Livermore Valley Performing Arts Center, a not for profit corporation. Like Bothwell's Facebook page to stay informed of future arts.
