The annual “Chico Icons” exhibition runs at Avenue 9 Gallery & Art Guild from December 11-January 16.
This show is a great crowd pleaser and features a “People’s Choice” award.
Chicoans love to see the ‘take’ of artists on such local treasures as our water towers, Bidwell Park’s “Five Mile,” the Stansbury House, and less familiar sites including fertile agricultural surroundings with orchards and vegetable fields.
"As the unity of the modern world becomes increasingly a technological rather than a social affair, the techniques of the arts provide the most valuable means of insight into the real direction of our own collective purposes."
