One of the Inland Empire Treasures

January 31, 2008


Last Saturday evening I had the privelege of attending the Sam Maloof Birthday Celebration at Cal State San Bernardino. Not only is the exhibit of Sam Maloof's woodworking art absolutely awe inspiring, the Robert V. Fullerton Art Museum is also a treasure for the Inland Empire.


Today, from 4:30 to 7P.M., Sam MAloof returns to the campus for a reception to which the public is invited. The exhibit is entitled "Sam Maloof: Essence of the Handmade." Admission is free. Parking is $4. More information: 909-537-7373.


We are so fortunate that this incrediably talented artistan has put his roots down in Rancho Cucamonga and continues to share both his work and his positive attitude about life and work. If you possibly can, stop by this afternoon. If this is not possible, the exhibit will be at Cal State San Bernardino until May 17, 2008. The Robert V. Fullerton Art Museum is open on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 10 A.M. to 5 P.M. On Thursdays the museum is open from 10 A.M. to 7 P.M.


While you are there, don't miss the permanent collection of Egyptian art or the exhibit of artist Katrin Wiese. The reception for Katrin is also this evening.
