Brandon Gallery’s Second Annual Small Works Exhibition, under the direction of Chairperson Mary Tomaskevitch, opened Saturday, August 2, with a gala reception that included the presentation of several awards to talented local artists. Juror for the show was Tom Fong, a celebrated watercolorist, teacher and juror.
The show carried the requirement that all work must pass through a 12-inch opening one way, which leaves the final measurement up to the artist.
The show is open now through the end of August and can be viewed at the gallery, located at 105 North Main Avenue.
Brandon Gallery was established in 1977, making it the oldest artistic co-op in San Diego County. Over the past three decades, the gallery has earned an outstanding reputation for high-quality art made by local and regional artists and its juried shows.
Fine art works that can be found at the gallery include watercolors, oils, computer image art, photography, handmade jewelry, glass works and much more.
The gallery became a nonprofit entity in 2001 and works effectively with other art venues in Fallbrook to grow this sector of the community. Each year, an Annual Appeal campaign is held so that supporters of the arts in the community can make contributions to help sustain the gallery.
