Artist Reception at ArtWorks

Fall into art and inspiration at Artworks Salinas!

This month’s featured exhibition, “Monterey County Abstracts,” highlights the bold, self-taught abstract photography of Kent Van Vuren. Guest artist Paul Bollwinkle brings over 20 years of experience in mosaic art to “Mosaic Impressions,” a vibrant collection of collaborative ceramic pieces celebrating the joyful interplay of colors and textures.

Our November Artist-in-Residence, Gregorytheartist, showcases his textured acrylic landscapes that reflect creativity, gratitude, and community connection.

Enjoy a live performance by Franky Soto during the Artist Reception on Thursday, November 7, from 5–8 PM, and connect with local artists in an inspiring evening of art, music, and conversation.

You’ll also find works by Cristal Hammer, Nate Stapleton, Shagufta Khan, Edge Lorenzo, Deborah Good, and Kenji Tanner!
