CCGGA member nurseries throughout Nipomo and Arroyo Grande will open their doors to the public in effort to raise money for their scholarship fund. Several growers will offer nursery tours of their facilities, in addition to their highly anticipated local plant and flower sales. This is an opportunity for the public to visit with growers and learn firsthand, how to care for the outstanding plant and flower products that these nurseries are selling.

Each participating nursery proudly donates a portion of that day’s sales to the CCGGA Scholarship Fund, which is made available to Horticulture students and CCGGA grower members’ children.

Nurseries open for tours & plant sales will be: Altman Plants, Ball Tagawa Growers, Native Sons and Ocean Breeze.

This collaborative exhibition celebrates the intersection of art and environmental stewardship, highlighting the efforts of the Oak Group, the UCSB Cheadle Center for Biodiversity & Ecological Restoration, and Coal Oil Point Reserve to conserve the Devereux Slough.

Art in Service of the Land invites viewers to explore how art documents, interprets, and amplifies the ongoing work of conservation, revealing the beauty and complexity of the North Campus Open Space (NCOS) and inspiring engagement with our local environment.

This exhibition was curated and cosponsored by the Oak Group and the Cheadle Center for Biodiversity and Ecological Restoration, in collaboration with UCSB Library staff.

Exhibition runs from March 16 to June 26.

Passage Through, New York–based artist Peter Krashes’ first solo exhibition on the West Coast, uses paintings of old and new construction, atmospheric details of public meetings, and ordinary yet meaningful aspects of community work to focus on daily experience in an ever-changing world.

For nearly two decades, Krashes was deeply engaged as a community activist, and this lived experience shapes the work throughout the exhibition. Passage Through turns our attention to interstitial spaces and events—what is found in between, at the edges of our awareness, in the overlooked, and in the margins of our vision.

Exhibits runs through June.
 

The nine diverse works of American art in this exhibition span from 1915 to 2020, representing a remarkable slice of American art history. This selection weaves together ideas of identity, childhood, and environment. Through diverse mediums, styles, and cultural contexts, these works offer insights into the personal, cultural, and artistic conversations that shape our world. This project is made possible through our remarkable partnership with Art Bridges, whose mission is to bring art out of storage and into communities across America.

Together, these works explore social issues that feel especially relevant today in the American political landscape—ideas of home, belonging, community, and time. Each artwork tells its own story, but together they create a larger history and experience. This exhibition does more than reflect the world: it helps us understand it and imagine the future we want to create.

Exhibition runs through May.

SLO EarthFest inspires and empowers our community to take bold climate action through education, connection, and celebration. By bringing together local leaders, sustainable innovators, and passionate individuals, we create a fun and engaging space to explore solutions, support climate-friendly initiatives, and build a more resilient future—right here in San Luis Obispo.

Out of Bounds! is an open juried international exhibition offered by the Pastel Society of the West Coast of works in pastel (and other mediums) going beyond the traditional use of the pastel medium. Breaking the 80% rule for traditional pastel exhibits, this competition is one that requires the entries to be approximately 30-50% pastel to be combined with one or more other mediums creating two-dimensional works of art. If you relish experimental art and love art that moves outside of the usual boundaries of traditional pastel competitions, this show is for you.

Exhibition runs from April 2nd to May 11th.
