Artists across the centuries have celebrated the human form in
an unlimited variety of styles and mediums. We are proud to
supply our local talented artists with a venue where they can
proudly display their nudes as well as clothed human forms. Last
years show was a huge success and many of the artists were
grateful for this opportunity. Many local venues don’t allow for
nudity and artists are limited on where they can show them.
“It’s nice to have an elegant outlet and opportunity to show and
sell our work!” Artists interested in a prospectus should email
for the PDF, Barbara Stanton at microangelo@earthlink.net or
send a SASE to 1222 North P St. Livermore, CA 94551-1661.
