The Experience, Richmond: Arts of Pt Richmond Exhibit

The Experience:

Explore Fabric Art at the Post Office!

Point Richmond Post Office windows have been upgraded thanks to Arts of Pt Richmond receiving a Gateway Foundation Grant.

Becca Riley’s exhibition of fabric art runs April 7 through July 6, 2021, at the Post Office in Pt Richmond.

Becca describes her art as an exploration. “Making art is just plain fun,” says Becca. “It gives me something to ponder, such as ‘What would happen if I did…?’ Bright, intense color is joyful and exciting. I like texture that is tactile as well as interesting. Creating art solidifies my thoughts and feelings and helps me to communicate them to others.”

Check out Becca’s exhibit at the Post Office in Pt Richmond and while you are there, visit one of the great cafes or eateries!

The Arts of Point Richmond is a community association established to enrich the community by promoting support, appreciation and exposure for the Arts. ‘AOPR Members Virginia Rigney, Bob Colin and Rita Gardner are the members who made it happen.

Dee Bell fills Pt Richmond Post Office with Beauty + Color!

An Exhibition of oil paintings by Dee Bell is showing at the Post Office at 104 Washington Ave in Point Richmond through April 5, 2021. Her art is inspired by the organic shapes, patterns and colors of nature. Dee lives in Point Richmond and loves painting local scenes. Many of her paintings also reflect the spirit years she lived in Hawaii.

“The joy and freedom of painting is a true gift, says artist Dee Bell.” I am an architect and artist working in many media including sculpture, glass fusing, and mosaics. Yet in oil painting I’ve found my deepest and everlasting passion. I am inspired by the colors and beauty of nature. Many of my paintings reflect the spirit of the years I spent in Hawaii. I live in the Point and love painting our beautiful Bay Area where I’ve lived since 1996.“

This exhibition and more are produced by the Arts of Point Richmond.
