Galen Wolf (1889-1976)
Special Showing – One Day Only
Noon to 5 PM: This event is free and open to the public. Stay as long as you like.
2 PM presentation: Introduction to Galen Wolf, his works and reading of his stories.
More than 50 pieces of art by Galen Wolf will be on display during this one-day show. An accomplished storyteller as well as a talented artist, his knowledge of the Coastside’s history was acquired firsthand, through his own experiences and those of his family and friends. Galen painted the California Missions in the 1930s, worked as a WPA artist in the early 40s, and developed a unique style of painting he called “mosaic” in the 1950s. He was a founding member of Thirty and One Artists, the Society of Western Artists, and, more locally, the Spanishtown Historical Society.
