Some of the printed maps are still available, but if you don’t have a map, you can access the online map at www.stanislausaos.com. Alternatively, you can use the QR code on our flyers and postcards, which are available at Visit Modesto, Queen Bean, State Theatre, and other locations. In Turlock, stop at the Pink Duck Gallery on Center Street. Art Demos and studios are open for 35 artists, free to visit, in nineteen stops, with three in Turloc, the rest in Modesto.

Lizzeth and Paulina have previously shown at the SAC gallery. This month, the Arts Council opens a new show, “Articulate Your Truth,” on October 6 and runs until the end of December.
Chris Garcia has been showing art and recently added Murals to the Graffiti Salon at 926 12th Street, Modesto.

California Beauty College also added to the Murals on its walls, easy to see in proximity to the Queen Bean. October is a month when one sees murals pop-up overnight. Check the railroad side of Skewers for the latest DoMo Walls International Mural festival, complete on October 6.
The Third Thursday Art Walk kicks off a busy weekend in Art on October 16. Tea Noelle’s Root Music series will be featured at Dragonfly Art for Life, adding to the creatives that night. Same evening, the Cricket’s Hope fundraiser “The Art of Hope” takes place out in a Del Rio neighborhood. October 18 is the CVA’s first show. I turn 71 on the 16th. Last month, Modesto View was forwarded a fan letter for Art View coverage of the Art Market at Virginia Corridor back in June. I am happy to report to our readers that Art Market on the Virginia Corridor returns on November 1. A Good way to start the holiday art season. Near Roseburg Square.
