The “Taking It Outdoors” project, launched in 2020 by Kenoli Oleari and Sharon Goods, is funded by an annual grant from the Gateway Foundation and fees paid by the Arts of Point Richmond artists who submit their art.

Art by Kate Merriman, Bernadette Robertson, Alan Krakauer. TIO team members Dee and Ward Bell, Brian McGilloway and Anna and Dave Froker.

Big thanks to the 2025 TIO team—Dee & Ward Bell, Anna & Dave Froker, Brian McGilloway, Kate Merriman, Kaci Smith, Ann Wizer, and Rita Gardner—who volunteered their time and energy to make this year’s exhibit happen!
