The Experience, Emeryville: Celebration of the Arts Opening Night @ Public Market Tomorrow!

By |Tags: , , , , |0 Comments

The Experience:

Immerse yourself in the Art Scene!

Celebrate Emeryville’s vibrant arts community!

You are invited to Opening Night of Emeryville’s 39th Annual Art Exhibition Friday, October 3, 6-9pm at 5905 Shellmound St in the Public Market. This juried art exhibition produced by Celebration of the Arts, features more than 200 artworks created by over 140 artists and craftspeople who live or work in Emeryville. On opening night you get to meet the artists and get a first look at their artwork as you listen to music by The doRiaN Mode: Vintage Jazz & Blues. A no-host bar raises funds for the Emeryville Youth Art Program. It’s always an electrifying opening night as the community celebrates the city’s thriving collective creativity.

This Annual Art Exhibition showcases the depth of talent and diverse artistic expression of both emerging and established artists. And now, the City of Emeryville has designated October 2025 as Arts & Culture Month and the 39th Annual Emeryville Art Exhibition – open throughout the month – will serve as a hub for creative exploration and participation. Arts & Culture Month kicks off with the Opening Night Reception and comes to a close with a poetry and music event hosted by Emeryville’s former Poet Laureate Sarah Kobrinsky on Sunday, October 26th in the exhibition courtyard.

“Thirty-nine years is a record breaking run for a small, largely volunteer arts organization,” said juror and exhibition designer Kathleen Hanna. “I am privileged to be a part of Emeryville Celebration of the Arts for the last fourteen years and always excited to see the variety and scope of the work produced in this very special community by the Bay.”

The exhibition is open October 4 – 26, 2024, from 11am to 6 pm, Wednesdays through Sundays at Public Market Emeryville, located at 5905 Shellmound Street, Emeryville, CA.  For details, directions, and Emery-go-round stop information, log onto www.emeryarts.org or call 510/652-6122.

Each year the exhibition space is donated by a local Emeryville business. For the fourth year in a row, Oxford Properties Group has generously offered the space for the Annual Exhibition at Public Market Emeryville. Situated at the south end of this lively artisan food destination, exhibition visitors will find ample parking and dining options and even a Saturday morning Farmer’s Market.
