Repurposing Art Night
For the first First Friday of Spring, let Old Town's 60+ vendors treat you to a vintage taste of yesteryear.
Honestly, some of their stuff actually IS art, although some will simply add an artistic flourish to your life space — and even more treasures and trinkets abound which could easily become art with a little creative imagination, elbow grease, and maybe some glue...

Clyde Kirkpatrick
Marine Art
King Jewelers is pleased to present local marine artist Clyde Kirkpatrick.
“My passion is depicting the infinitely changing moods and textures of water. Best known for my marine art, I'm intrigued how reflections on water change and distort the form of an object. My award winning work has been on exhibit in juried shows, galleries and museums on the West coast. If you paint from the heart you will touch the heart."
Come see Clyde's beautiful artwork in our showroom and on his website!
