Hi all, I've just been informed by Joy Chase, President of The Pacific Art League in Palo Alto, that there are still some openings for a
rare tour of Oliver Ranch in Sonoma County.
rare tour of Oliver Ranch in Sonoma County.
One of the largest collections of site specific sculpture in the world.
Sort of a Storm King Art Center of the West coast.
Maria and I will be going courtesy of a benefactor! THANK YOU!!!
Information on location, tour and sign up below. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I've just watched the KQED videos, and this is worth it.
And yes, I realize Maker Faire and SF Fine Art Fair are this weekend as well.
