Museum on Main is offering unique reproductions of nearly 30 landmarks of California and the Tri-Valley in its latest display, Brickworks: LEGO Artists Celebrate California and the Tri-Valley.
Pleasantonâs Museum on Main will host a traveling exhibit that interprets California through a collection of artistsâ quilts from June 23 to August 14.
âStitching California: Fiber Artists Interpret the Stateâs People, Life, and Landâ showcases the work of more than 40 artists working in California and neighboring states.
While many of the quilts reflect the beauty of the stateâs natural environment, darker themes also emerge, including the impacts of climate change, the lasting detrimental effects of the Gold Rush, and the persecution faced over time by Californiaâs indigenous peoples, Hispanic population, and Japanese Americans who were interned during World War II.
