NOTE FOR MEMBERS: CAA members can purchase discounted members-only tickets until they sell out (30 were reserved at this special rate pricing for CAA members in good standing). The CAA member discounted tickets are for the member only... not their non-member spouse/partner/guest. Only CAA members who will be volunteering to work AT the event on October 28th do not need to purchase a ticket. If a member is not working at the event, a ticket needs to be purchased. Thank you!
Get ready for the Ball by creating your own unique masquerade mask with CAA member and costumer Lani Britain on Sunday, Oct. 15. Just $15 gets you all of the tantalizing tidbits you need to make something truly dazzling!
"Glorious Food and Sweets!" Art Show Winners
For this art show, we brought in judges from the community who know a thing or two about food: Steve and Kathy Botkin from Corona's beloved Cowboy Surfer Grill . Steve and Kathy did an amazing job judging the variety of art styles, interpretations of theme, and mediums that were submitted.
You can view the winners in the CAA Gallery during business hours, or online any time here: https://www.coronaartassociation.org/current-art-exhibit-winners
Here's a preview:
And all entered art will be featured on our social media channels throughout the coming weeks.
Getting ready for the "Fall-idays"
Join us on Saturday, October 14th from 5-8pm for the City of Corona's Annual Halloweekend Event at the Civic Center! The CAA gallery will be open for the Treat Trail, where kids will get candy bars and get to do a free arts and crafts project!
The Gallery Gift Shop will also be open for gift and decor shopping.
Our new "Glorious Food and Sweets!" Art Show will be open for viewing (always free of charge).
We are gladly accepting donations from community members of full sized candy bars to give out to the kids!
NOTE FOR MEMBERS: Please bring your donations of FULL SIZED candy bars to the gallery as soon as possible, but no later than October 13th. You can pick up boxes at Smart and Final, Sams Club, Costco, and elsewhere. Chocolate-based candy is preferred, but we also needs some fruity candy such as Skittles and Starburst. Here's a link to Smart and Final to show you what we are looking for.
We also need volunteers to help with the kids crafts tables. Please email karla@coronaartassociation.org to sign up to help.
