Art faculty Eileen Parent has been selected to participate in a group exhibition at the de Young museum in San Francisco. 

Building on the tremendous success of the inaugural The de Young Open in 2020, the second triennial of this juried community art exhibition feature submissions by artists from the nine Bay Area counties: Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Solano, and Sonoma. Designed to celebrate and support our local arts communities, this exhibition allows artists to offer their works for sale and retain the proceeds. As in 2020, we will also acquire a selection of exhibition artworks for our permanent collection.

This year 7,766 talented artists submitted their artwork out of which 883 were selected for this exhibition. 70 being from Sonoma County. These artworks were reviewed by twelve jurors - eight Fine Arts Museum curators along with four distinguished Bay Area artists.
