Sherwood Valley Casino and the Willits Center for the Arts (WCA) have joined hands to launch “Creative at the Casino” to showcase the region, Native American Culture and the playful expression of creativity, color and composition through the eyes of local artists. This is the first time such a collaboration is taking place between the two organizations.
Starting from September 2019, it will feature a different artist every quarter.
“We are excited to be joining the Willits Center for the Arts in promoting not only this beautiful region, but very talented and locally inspired artists as well,” said Barry Weiss, celebrity, art collector and official spokesperson of the casino. “This effort will add beautiful, collectible art to the casino’s walls, provide valuable exposure to great artists, and would not be possible without the WCA’s commitment and willingness to curate an ongoing show in our public spaces.”
Remarked Weiss. “The Center for the Arts is excited about this partnership with Sherwood Valley Casino and further promote the art movement in our area,” said Gary Martin, curator of the Willits Center for the Arts. “The casino and the Tribe have been very important patrons of ours over the years, and the casino space will provide an innovative canvas and alternative platform for displaying local artists’ work to the people who visit our city and the casino.”
