Little Gems
Martha Cowan January 9 - February 15, 2020
Artist Statement:
Since I was a little girl, I have been attracted to little things. Not sure why – maybe I needed to have control of them, or maybe thought I was one of them. For this exhibit, I'll be painting small works – little gems – of things I love. I hope the viewer will see that to me, these objects are everything: because of their colors, shapes, or a feeling I have when I choose them to become important in a painting.
Through February 15, 2020

Angelina Sandoval
December 19, 2019 - January 26, 2020
Artist statement: "I am a very imaginative person and I like drawing anything really if it’s cartoon characters or graffiti art. Ever since I was little, I had all these ideas and I was very artistic. I grew up with my dad who is a tattoo artist, so I was always watching him and was just amazed.What interests me about drawing is you can see the artist's emotions. The media I like to use are pencil, markers and clay. Being able to have an image in your head and sculpt it is just amazing. My goal is to be a tattoo apprentice because of my family members. Tattoo artists make people happy and feel good about themselves with the art they have on their body. It could connect them to past memories and remind them of the good times they have had in their life."
Through January 26, 2020

Time for Trees
Selections from CCMA’s Collections
January 16 - May 24, 2020
We all enjoy the visual beauty of trees. But what else do trees do for us? They clean our air, provide us with oxygen, reduce the effects of climate change, help clean our drinking water, and provide a source of energy. Celebrate the beauty and benefits of Trees with artworks from our collection.
