IN THE GALLERY

Kevin Snow, Gallery Sitter at The Cheri Blackerby

The Cheri Blackerby Gallery is open 10-2pm Monday through Friday. The gallery is also open for art receptions from 6-9 pm the first Saturday of every month for Arts Alive. We also participate in several other art related events during the year. We always need volunteers to help us in the gallery to welcome visitors, provide information, set up for events, staff the refreshments area and many other duties. Requirements are minimal, an enthusiastic attitude being the most important. For more information and to schedule an interview, contact The Studio at 707-443-1428 or send us an e-mail.
