The Wildlife Art Festival
November 21, 2008
On Saturday and Sunday, November 22 and 23, 2008, the San Bernardino County Museum at 2024 Orange Tree Lane in Redlands will host the annual Wildlife Art Festival. This year, the San Bernardino County Museum Association is sponsoring the event along with the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors, Brutoco Construction Management, Target, Southwest Art Magazine and KVCR-Fm 91.9. Admission is free.
This event began when the museum was able to secure the right to exhibit the winners of the Federal Duck Stamp competition. Viewing the art that is created for this competition is a real visual experience. The realistic representation of duck species requires fantastic artistic ability.
Adding to the National art exhibit will be the exhibit of art created by the junior artists. By making the event free for visitors, the museum hopes to widen the appreciation for this genre of art. The winner of the 2008 Federal Duck Stamp competition, Joshua Spies will be present.
In addition to the Federal Duck Stamp exhibit, approximately 2 dozen artists, including featured artist Leslie Kirchner, will be exhibiting art for purchase.
There will also be family activities fro 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. There will be drawing instruction for kids ages 9-15. The Ramona Country Carvers will be demonstrating carving techniques. The museum's Exploration Station will have live animals to view from1 p.m. to 4 p.m.
The hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday.
Until they run out, at CENTURY 21 Lois Lauer Realty you can pick up a card for a free ticket to the event's opportunity drawing.
