NOTES FROM THE GALLERY
Youth Art Month was celebrated at Cambria Center for the Arts with
a colorful and creative art display in the Gallery and performances
in the Theatre. It was wonderful to see a stream of new visitors to
the Gallery. The display is a testament to the excellent teaching
in the arts within Coast Union School District as well as the rising
talents of the students. The show concluded Sunday, March 22nd.
Exchange Day for our Spring Juried Show, Cultural Heritage, was
Tuesday, March 24th. The show will run through May 3rd. Our
juror for this show, Harold Spencer, will present awards to the prize
winners during our reception on Friday, March 27th. Professor
Emeritus at the University of Connecticut where he taught History
of Art, Harold Spencer is also an artist, art juror, and author . He
currently has a studio at Studios on the Park in Paso Robles.
Award winners will be announced later on our Facebook page and
our website.
Improvements to the Gallery and general facility will be made
soon. Look for new signage to appear over our current sign which
remains broken and will be a long-term project to replace. We
also hope to have better lighting in the Gallery very soon thanks
to the efforts of Jack Della-Bitta. Artists who wish to contribute to
the purchase of these lights will have their work lighted with one of
the new spots.
Many people have been taking advantage of the new Wednesday
Gallery hours. This has been possible because of an increase in
volunteers. We thank everyone who gives of their time to Cambria
Center for the Arts. There are behind the scenes jobs such as

cleaning up the kitchen and/or Mauve Room, painting touch-ups of
pedestals, signs, etc., organizing our storage container and others.

Charlie Shoemake is our monthly attraction appearing once and sometimes twice. We continue to draw very good audiences for this JAZZ
Series. One audience member, after the last performance, commented
that she did not understand why the house was not full. “People should
be lined up for blocks to hear this kind of professional performance-REMARKABLE!” She came from Santa Maria.
