This video is a preview of the upcoming California Fibers:Figuratively exhibit at the Front Porch Gallery in Carlsbad, California. Stop by the gallery from October 4 through November 14 to see the exhibit in full.
At the Front Porch Gallery, art creates community. This is a core belief at the gallery, and the foundation of their mission to engage the creativity of individuals in order to strengthen wellbeing and communities. They are a non-profit, community resource dedicated to creating vibrant, vital communities through art. They believe everyone has a story to share. Stories told through art are not only compelling, but profoundly important to our individual wellbeing. Understanding and connecting with this expression are at the very heart of what we know community to be. Individual creativity at all ages is available to anyone interested and willing to learn. Front Porch Gallery reveals these stories through innovative programs and exhibitions showcasing artwork from a variety of senior artists and others whose stories come to life through paintings, photography, sculpture, fiber arts, and more. This professional venue helps create an understanding of aging through art, in a place where Front Porch residents and the greater community can come together to share creative expression throughout the year. The gallery collaborates with individual artists and innovative organizations to produce unique exhibits, themed shows, juried exhibits, and professional invitationals that celebrate the creative endeavors and full range of artistic expression at every level of experience.
Programs for Front Porch residents engage the creatives and those who don’t believe they are, in order to reveal the rich experience and wisdom that helps create an understanding of aging and offers opportunities for learning and fun!
Front Porch Gallery is funded by grants from FACT Foundation, Pacific Homes Foundation, and Sunny View Foundation. The gallery is an outreach program of Front Porch.
