    LocalVision 2008 is an annual exhibition which originated in Santa Cruz in 1994. It has been an opportunity for beginning students to exhibit their artwork. The exhibition is comprised of black and white photography, color, digital and Polaroid images. Presented in this collection, one sees a variety of viewpoints from the artist. One photographer captures a tender moment with a beloved pet, another snaps a shot of an awe inspiring landscape, or abstract view of downtown or a blooming flower in one’s backyard. All the work tells a grand story of individual experiences in a collaborative exhibition. Students presenting are from local communities along the Peninsula; Millbrae, Burlingame, San Mateo, San Carlos, Redwood City and Menlo Park. Curator Marty Springer currently works for Park and Recreation Departments teaching students several styles and mediums of photography, as well as developing their talents and presenting their works in quality exhibitions such as this one.
    The show will be displayed in the East Wing Gallery.

        With 64 Artists, refreshments, live music, art auction and art demonstrations, this is one of the more action-packed and fun Open Studio events in the Bay Area. Although it is billed as "Pacifica Open Studios", artists from around the peninsula and bay also set up in the spacious galleries so there is plenty of variety and beautiful art for every budget. This Open Studios is the ideal size with lots to see but not an overwhelming number of artists so that it wears you out trying to see them all. Last year's event was a huge success, and this year promises to be even better. There is lots of parking at the Center and when things get really hopping you can find parking on Linda Mar Blvd. On Saturday and Sunday Open Studios are free and open to the public from 11am to 5pm. The Preview Gala on Friday, from 7pm - 9pm, costs $25 and is a benefit for the Sanchez Art Center. Collapse
