This summer, the 30th Annual Arts of Bear Valley (AOBV) Summer Art Show will once again complement the melodies of the Bear Valley Music Festival with the paintings, pottery and photography of 18 artists from Arts of Bear Valley.
Arts of Bear Valley is an association of Calaveras County artists with roots in Bear Valley. Their works have won numerous awards, appeared in museums and been collected by art lovers worldwide.
The Summer Art Show, long a popular feature of the festival, has been welcomed back by the Bear Valley Music Festival. From July 21 to August 6, festival attendees as well as visitors to Bear Valley can view the art show and meet the artists at the Perry Walther Building next to the Bear Valley Music Festival Tent from one hour before the concert and continuing through and after each concert.
The art show is free for the public to enjoy many new artworks, with original paintings in watercolor, oil, acrylic, pastels and mixed media; ceramic pieces that include totems, sculptures and handmade pottery; and award-winning photography. Of course, all artwork is available for you to purchase.
Artwork purchases support our local artists as well as the AOBV’s community service mission to develop, promote and enhance the visual arts in our rural area. AOBV funds art appreciation and education through programs for children and scholarships for high school seniors. They co-host the Calaveras County Fair and Jumping Frog Jubilee’s Professional Art Show in collaboration with the Calaveras County Arts Council; and present Art in the Park, a two-week-long art show at Calaveras Big Trees.
This year at the music festival, AOBV artists will lead two free art programs for kids of all ages. Projects will include fun activities like stenciling, watercolor, alcohol ink on tiles, and face painting. You won’t need a reservation on Sunday, July 30, after the concert. If you would like to participate in the art activity on Monday, July 31 and you are not part of Bear Valley’s Summer Camp, sign up when the show is open in the Perry Walther building at the art show’s sales desk.
Supporting the music festival is a high priority for the AOBV. Six artists donated artwork for a drawing: Jan Alcalde, Phoebe Bryan, Peggy Huth, Karen O’Neil, Margaret Sloan and Larissa Stevenson. The Bear Valley Music Festival also has a special donated item—a hand knitted lapghan by the KNITWITZ of Murphys. You can see the items just inside the entrance to the art show, and you can purchase tickets at the art show sales desk.
