Vallejo’s 2nd Friday Art Walk

Starting in April 2015 the McCune Collection became open to the Public 5:00-9:00pm on the second Friday of each month as a regular venue of Vallejo's 2nd Friday Art Walk. For the first time in many years the McCune is expanding the hours it is open to the Public, and this is first the time it has ever offered regular evening hours. Each month the McCune will also feature the work of one or more local artists on exhibit in the McCune Room. During 2nd Fridays only, visitors can enter the McCune Collection directly from the staircase on the plaza at the corner of Georgia and Santa Clara Streets. Beverages and snacks will also be served.

Any artists interested in exhibiting their work on a 2nd Friday in The McCune Room should contact us either via phone (707) 674-4082 or via e-mail mccunecollection@gmail.com

In Celebration of Word and Image~Works by Francesca Borgatta
To make her art, Francesca combines re-cycled objects and materials taken from nature; using language in conjunction with her artwork to tell stories and examine familiar assumptions. In this exhibit, she presents a set of wall tablets to describe the interaction of the five elements (earth, metal, water, wood, and fire) according to the Chinese traditional theory. Her dioramas use the sides of the box to explore the phases of the story, and her puppet characters are accompanied by sections of dialogue. Opening reception: Friday, March 8th from 5 pm to 9 pm. Show runs through Saturday, April 27.
