“CITYSCAPES AND STREETSCAPES” IN THE FIRST FLOOR GALLERY AT CITY HALL

Explore the Dynamic and Evolving Narrative of Urban Landscapes

The City of Santa Clarita is thrilled to announce the opening of its latest art exhibition, “Cityscapes and Streetscapes,” in the First Floor Gallery within Santa Clarita’s City Hall (23920 Valencia Boulevard). This showcase will run from Thursday, March 7 through Wednesday, June 5, with a special reception event planned for Friday, March 8, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m.

“Cityscapes and Streetscapes” showcases the nuanced perspectives of city-living through various artistic mediums, as seen in Mark Foster’s textured paintings, Robert Gideon’s black and white photography and Gevork Sherbetchyan’s sublime digital painting. Exploring the dynamic and evolving narrative of urban landscapes and the intricate streets that weave through them, these curated artworks capture the essence of city life in its myriad of forms, from the quiet street corners pictured in Therese Verner’s “Street Vendor in Paros” to the bustling populated streets in Gary Friedman’s “On the Street” watercolor painting. These selected artworks contribute visually to the compelling narrative that speaks not just to the aesthetics of cityscapes and streetscapes but also to the human experiences and stories they encompass.

Please join the City for an evening dedicated to discussing the featured artwork while also getting to know the artists behind the pieces. Guests will be treated to refreshments and live music throughout the evening.
