50 artists showing 50 pieces of art created within 50 days as part of the 17th annual 50|50 show hosted by the Sanchez Art Center in Pacifica. The small 6″ x 6″ pieces are installed in artist specific grids which makes it a delight to take it all in. Each of us has chosen a theme. Mine is “Sailboats in Cerulean and Gold.”
This year’s jurors have been Melissa Kreisa and Rose Sellery who are Co-Directors of M. K. Contemporary Art Gallery in Santa Cruz. I am so delighted to be included in this very low-key and fun show. I am also so very appreciative of the folks at the Sanchez Art Center who have this event very well organized for artists and visitors.
The Sanchez Art Center is located at 220-B Linda Mar in Pacifica. The drive to Pacifica is lovely and there are some delightful restaurants in the area. One of my favorites is Nicks at Rockaway Beach. I love their crab sandwich and the incredible views. Do make a reservation. If you’re more in the mood for scenic cliffside stroll, the Devil’s Slide Trail provides easy walking on what used to be the highway before the tunnel. So … even if it is a bit of a haul to get to Pacifica it’ll feel like a mini vacation by the time you take in the views and art and a nice meal.
