Celebrate Summer Artists

The Gallery located in the Village of Big Bear Lake, has always been a great place to view and purchase work by skilled and creative local artists. The Arts Council of Big Bear Valley, is unveiling its summer line-up of acclaimed guest artists, featuring local artists with monthly receptions. The season’s first guest artist, Daniel Ketelhut, creates mysterious and surreal expressionist paintings that he says, “…tap into the unconscious of the viewer, creating a more direct, visceral experience.” Ketelhut’s work will be hosted through mid-July, during which time landscape painter Elaine Bron will be the featured local artist. 

The public is invited to visit with artists, listen to live music and enjoy wine and hors d’oeuvres at The Gallery’s 4th Saturday Open House-style reception, July 28 from 4:00 P.M. until 8:00 P.M. Visit BigBearLakeArts.org for details or call 909-878-4161. The Gallery is located at 40750 Village Drive in Big Bear Lake. 

The Arts Council of Big Bear Valley is currently focused on creating a Village Arts Campus—a cultural center where visual and performing artists from throughout the area can teach, create and share the arts for the enrichment of youth and the community.
