Children's Book Illustration Exhibits at Chemers and CSUF

The Chemers Gallery in Tustin is having its 17th annual children's book illustration exhibit. This year's art comes from illustrators Elisa Kleven, Beth Krommes, Holly Meade, Zachary Pullen and Melissa Sweet. Book signing and presentations from these artists will take place Saturday, December 6th, 2008, from 1pm to 5pm. The exhibit will stay on the walls until December 20th. Next, hop north to CSUF (less than a 10 min. drive) to see the shows of Barbara Kolberg and Patricia Caplette, who are both graduating this semester with their Illustration MFAs. While Caplette's elegant art is slightly more for grown-ups, Kolberg has produced a fun series of children's book illustrations. These exhibits open at 6pm on Saturday, December 6th as well, and will run one week.
