​Gallery Route One presents three exhibits:
Beholding Healer Archetypes by GRO founding member Toni Littlejohn, an exhibit offering archetypal healers in a cavernous installation as an essential and existential response to the challenges we are facing on planetary, political, and spiritual levels
​
Terrain in Vain by visiting artist Amy Yoshitsu, a photography-based installation of sculptures, collage and imagery that explore how physical contexts and systemic forces undergird our shared and intimate realities
Before Salt and Memory by GRO artist member Kelley Berg, a suite of paintings emerging out of a desire to focus not on our differences, but rather on the rich experiences we have in common; in this case, moving through the world in aging bodies

Showing: Lela Shields
Join us as we highlight local artist Lela Shields.
Inspired by the wild landscape of West Marin, Shields' work is a balance between human, animal and spiritual realms. Each piece starts with a spill of ink, followed by delicate line work and detail, to reveal the fragility of life and the magic of chance. Her work has been exhibited locally, across the US and as far away as Japan and Australia. She lives and works in West Marin.

For the October Art Walk Ernesto’s Studio will feature the collage art of Rosemary Smith. Besides being Ernesto’s daughter Rosemary was the first baby born in West Marin in 1982.

Showing:
Work by Marin Artists, Kathleen Lipinski, Tom Killion, Todd Pickering, Joyce Laws, Susan Hall, Wendy Schwartz, & Andrea Hubbard. Also featuring Nichibei and Gokan pottery.
​
Todd Pickering will be at Leona's to talk to the public.
​
Susan Hall was born in Point Reyes Station, California. She attended the California College of Arts and Crafts and the University of California, Berkeley. Her work is included in the collections of the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Brooklyn Museum.
​
Todd Pickering received his Bachelor of Fine Arts from the San Francisco Art Institute where he concentrated on landscape photography and sculpture. Travels have taken him from above the Arctic Circle in Norway to the rainforests in Hawaii and to the jungles of Sri Lanka. Recent years you can find him walking the curves and edges of the Point Reyes region in California.
​
Joyce Laws ' is inspired by what she sees from her studio that sits on a hillside over looking Tomales Bay in Inverness. She loves how the fog softens the edges of the world around her spilling over the hilltops, hovering in a thick mass over the bay and then thinning and lifting off the surface of the bay to give her peeks of the rippled water below and the blue sky above. She loves the bright, clear, sunny days and the strong contrast of the dark green trees against the Golden hills. She is drawn to paintings with such interesting surfaces that she wants to reach out and touch them. Success is when she can see that she has made a small step toward that goal.
​
Kathleen Lipinski has worked with Marin landscape in painting and printmaking for 40 years. Her art combines a love of nature with her dedication to realism, attention to detail, and the ability to capture the quality of light.
Her oil paintings range in size from postcard-sized to canvases as large as 14 feet wide. Limited edition giclée prints are created from her original oil paintings which capture the color and detail of her unique style in signed and numbered works on paper.

Open daily, 11am - 5pm.

​At Wild West Ferments we are inspired by the ancient wisdom of our work. Fermentation is an age-old practice of preserving and enhancing food through a simple dance with nature. The act of fermenting foods has been engaged to preserve harvests and create alcohol (and religious experiences) by ancient cultures all over the world. In every culture known, the lore and traditions related to fermentation help us understand what a vital role it plays in food systems and religious beliefs. Today the frontiers of science are focusing on the benefits of fermentation in a myriad of realms, confirming that age-old ways have value beyond our knowing.

Open Friday - Monday, 11am - 5pm.
