About this Event
About Oxbow Public Market
Join the California Art Club San Francisco Bay Area Chapter for a CAC exclusive day of painting and an artist friendly pop up sale at Oxbow Public Market, a popular gathering place with high foot traffic from locals and visitors. The market is a 40,000 square foot indoor marketplace with a scenic outdoor deck along the Napa River, and it sits right on the Napa River Trail, with indoor and outdoor options nearby.
Artists will find strong subjects within a short walk, including river and trail views, lively street scenes, nearby garden areas and green space, and character rich architecture, including older California houses that are now tasting rooms. The market is also adjacent to Oxbow Preserve and Oxbow Commons, offering easy landscape options close by.
A standout nearby is CIA at Copia and its Culinary Garden, a prominent garden featuring seasonal crops, trees and regional plants, great for studies of greens, structure, and spring color.
Artists will display work on their easels and handle their own pricing, labeling and payment processing.
