It was a wonderful opening reception for California Creative Arts (CCA) opening reception at the Betsy Lueke Creative Arts Center Gallery!
It was a couple firsts for CCA – the first exhibit of the new year, and the first juried show with awards. The awards were sponsored by Erick Garcia, Farmers Insurance and the International Institute for Dreaming and Imagery, a program that works with dreaming, imagery, and the spontaneous imagination for transformation, creativity, personal development, and more!
Artwork from over 40 local artists have work showcased in this beautiful gallery space in Burbank’s George Izay Park. Along with the art there was a nice spread of deserts and refreshments, music and people just having a good time.
