New Art Exhibit

The Info-Center has just completed redecorating the walls with the art work of a new artist, not new in the artist world,  just new at the Info-Center. I am pleased to announce the latest art work of our local artist John LaBouyer, a young artist who specializes in vivid  characterizations of everyday life. 

No stranger to the community arts, to date, he has sold nearly 100 paintings,  and has additionally engaged many of his works around the community. He studied art with Drew Sallee, at our local Yuba Community College, and  continues his education via online.

The James Beckwourth painting is one of many that is now being showcased at the  Info-Center located at 317 4th Street in Historic Marysville. The piece it self relates to one of our pioneer heroes.  Another piece just completed is that of the “Nakagawa Building” that was demolished earlier this year. Please come by and see more of John’s work.  In tribute to the Stampede/Rodeo coming up he has a lovely painting with a western theme, vivid yellow-bold colors on displayed. 

This weekend just take a stroll down D Street in Historic Marysville, visit the Info-Center and see if you can find more of our local businesses such as the Candy Box and Skip's Music proudly displaying John’s Art. Here’s a tease of what Is displayed on the walls inside the Info-Center please come by and check more of his art work. The Info-Center is opened from 11:00-4:00 Tuesday-Sunday.
