The “Around Town: Building Community Through Art” exhibition at Point Richmond Gallery is a unique portraiture exhibition highlighting local personalities (and places) in a variety of media by Arts of Point Richmond artists. Be sure to stop by and see how many you recognize!

If you weren’t able to attend the opening reception for you missed a great event! Special speaker Mark Ulriksen—a San Francisco-based artist and illustrator whose instantly recognizable portraits and whimsical take on life have been featured on over 70 New Yorker magazine covers—spoke about his influences, inspiration and process in a highly engaging presentation.
