Main Street Arts is a co-op, with eleven members. Each member is responsible for hanging new artwork every two months. Our new January/February show will be open for you to enjoy beginning January 3rd. Sadly, we have to say goodbye to Lynne McManus, one of our founding members.  A talented watercolorist, Lynne is retiring from the gallery. She will be missed! In February we expect to have a new Main Street Arts gallery member. Who will it be? We don’t know yet!  

We will resume our First Friday celebrations on February 2nd. Main Street Arts and many other shops on Main Street stay open and offer refreshments between 6 pm and 9 pm every first Friday of the month. Our free raffle continues into 2024 and in January you can have a chance to win art by Eric Carlstrom. In February Bonnie Fry’s artwork will be the free raffle prize. All you have to do is come in and fill out a raffle ticket, for free!

The gallery is located at 613 Main Street in Martinez. For more information visit www.mainstreetarts.net

All of us at Main Street Arts wish everyone a Happy New Year and we look forward to making lots of new art for the gallery.
