 FINLEY ART EXHIBITS

PomoYouth

Honoring the Pomo Youth Dancers, by Christine Cobaugh
January 5 – February 2, 2012

This exhibit by photographer Christine Cobaugh includes three groups of images. The first features portraits of dancers in the Pomo Youth Dance Group of Santa Rosa, founded by Joe Salinas. For many dancers, participating in this group reflects important family and community values and is a deeply meaningful spiritual practice. The second group of images is a new abstract series, Spirit Dancers, reflecting Cobaugh’s interpretation of the energy and passion expressed by the Pomo Youth dancers. Lastly, the show includes twelve drawings and paintings by Pomo young people – ages 6 and up – representing elements of Pomo culture, past and present.

Reception: Thursday, January 5,  5-7pm

 

Local Sonoma County artist Greg Zirbel builds birdhouses and bird feeders that are whimsical replicas of historical landmarks and wineries of the Sonoma County wine country. Not only are these pieces of art recreations of historical landmarks, but each one is hand crafted using salvaged lumber from historical buildings which really make them special.
