This Second Saturday, Aug. 9th,
Opening gala & reception 5-7pm.

Step into the creative world of Eric Wilder, where Kashaya Pomo traditions meet digital illustration, comic art, and graphic design storytelling. This retrospective highlights the evolution of Wilder’s artistic journey—one that bridges ancestral knowledge with contemporary media. 

Through pen and ink, vibrant digital design, and cultural narrative, his work invites reflection, recognition, and reimagining of Native identity and resilience.

We will also be hosting a special evening of Kashaya Pomo storytelling with Eric Wilder on Friday, August 22nd, celebrating the living stories that inspire his art.

All are welcome, we look forward to seeing you!
