"I was very fortunate to have artwork exhibited in a show with the city of Encinitas. My work was exhibited at the Encinitas library for six weeks, in a fabulous large room with a wonderful view of the ocean...I was so fortunate to sell nine paintings--far beyond expectations...I made numerous contacts with hopes of more sales and opportunities for the future.” artist Neil Brooks.

ART NIGHT ENCINITAS

The City of Encinitas Cultural Arts Division hosts Art Night, a bi-monthly artist reception, in conjunction with each exhibition. These events are a huge success with more than 1,100 visits by the public at the City art spaces and local art galleries. 

Art Night benefits artists through the sale of their art and provides the public an opportunity to interact with artists and learn about the creative process while enjoying artist demos, live music, and light refreshments. Click here for pictures.
