Wine tasting event a success
It was a celebration of spring. A celebration of good wine and art. A celebration of cooperation.
On May 3 the annual Wine Tasting and Art Show drew a crowd of locals to the Colusa Senior Center to taste wines and cheeses and to view and purchase art from a four-county region. A cooperative event produced by the Friends of the Library and the Colusa County Arts Council, the wine tasting supports the Colusa County Library and the art show and sale supports regional artists and area arts events produced by the Colusa County Arts Council.
The theme of the art show was “Our Valley in Motion,” and Marysville artist Barbara Brown took home the Theme Prize with her patriotic watercolor “Hero.”
In the Adult Division, Linda Stephenson won First Prize for a detailed watercolor called “Clinging Vine,” and Second Prize in this division went to gourd artist Danarae Reed for her large sculpture “Unity.” Michael Hook’s “Untitled” painting took Third Prize
In the County High Schools Division, Sierra Reading of Colusa High School won both First Prize and Second Prize. First Prize was awarded to her war-themed installation, “Secured,” and Second Prize was for her pointillist painting “Louis.” Kiley Herrick, also of Colusa High School, won third prize for her whimsical painting “When I Look at the Stars. . . .”
