Painting Our Parks Santa Cruz County Bank arts collaborative presents Painting Our Parks, by members of Santa Cruz Oil Painters from September 17, 2012 - January 18, 2013.
At a time when California's State Park System has weathered the possible closure of 70 State Parks in response to state budget cuts, painters are well aware of the importance of the inspiration and retreat that these parks provide. Santa Cruz County Bank's fall exhibit, Painting Our Parks, celebrates County, State and National Parks through the works of 14 local artists, all members of Santa Cruz Oil Painters, who have captured the magic and beauty of our State Parks on their canvases. Paintings are on display in all five Santa Cruz County Bank banking offices throughout the County.
A reception will be held on September 27, from 5:30 - 7:00 pm at Santa Cruz County Bank, 720 Front Street, Santa Cruz. Artists will donate 20 percent of art sales to the Friends of Santa Cruz County State Parks.
