closeAnnual art sale aids Ranch preservation
F riends of the Fiscalini Ranch Preserve (FFRP) and Cambria’s “Wednesday Irregulars” will hold an art show and sale from 1 to 4 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 7, in the gardens at the Hamlet Restaurant on Highway 1, north of Cambria.
This year other artists and fine craftspeople will join the event. Tickets to the reception, $15, are available at the Cambria Chamber of Commerce, Cambria Farmers Market and at the door.
This event will benefit FFRP and the Fiscalini Ranch Preserve in the heart of Cambria and also support local artists.
The “Irregulars” are a loose knit group of plein air painters from San Luis Obispo County who meet at Art Van Rhyn’s studio each Wednesday and choose a different place to paint. The artists have been painting on location in the county and will be showing paintings of scenes from the area.
This year there will also be artworks in other media. All artwork will be for sale with half of the proceeds go to benefit FFRP and the Ranch.
There will be watercolor demonstrations by John Barnard and Shirley Pittman. Dennis Curry will provide a demonstration of his Mylar lithography techniques. There will be live music by Jeff Mar.
The show and sale of paintings, plus photographs and fine crafts, continues at The Hamlet through Jan. 6.
FFRP is the conservation easement holder for the Fiscalini Ranch Preserve and is responsible for conserving this property for generations to come. The Fiscalini Ranch Preserve contains approximately 430 acres and is open every day to public access on its many trails. It stretches from Burton Drive in Cambria, across Highway 1 to the ocean.
