First Friday Reception “Wax & Water” Show 5:30-7:30 May 1, 2026

We all know it, life here revolves around the beach and surfing sits right at the core of our community. This exhibit is all about celebrating the thrill, freedom and energy that a wave brings to our local surfers. We’re calling on all our member artists to create works that capture the spirit of surfing right here in our community. Whether they paint, sculpt or  photograph, we asked the artist to invoke the world of the surfer, the ride and the culture that makes our coastline unique. And who better to judge this show then those who know the waves best? We will be inviting some of our favorite local surfers to help us pick the winners!

“Surfing is not just about catching waves. It’s about being in the ocean, moving with the energy of the water and finding your own flow.”                                                                                                 –       -Jerry Lopez
