Please join Rebecca Sue Holladay in celebrating Kolibri's new gym/workout space, while also showcasing artworks by talented local artists. "Exercise is a way we express ourselves with our bodies; someone who creates art on canvas is also expressing themselves. To me life is about emotional expression and having a safe space to embody that. So I wanted to join these two elements together to create a space of safety and community." Art includes works from emerging artists in the North County, including 13 recent mixed media paintings by Laurie Batter of Carlsbad. Fresh, delicious appetizers by Savory Moment will be served. The Grand Opening is Saturday, April 19, from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. Enter from The Poinsettia Station parking lot. Batter, one of the featured artists, says she was always creating art as a child and teenager. She had good fortune to be born into a family who encouraged her creativity, and a grade school program that exposed her to the Masters and a college degree in Art History. After a 40-year hiatus from art while she ran her boutique PR & Marketing firm, and the surprise blessing of the Pandemic, she has renewed her connection to art, creating through multiple mediums and subjects. Her home studio is chock full of colorful paints, and every art supply you could dream about. She actively explores her creativity through classes at Mira Costa College, plus several renowned workshops including Nicholas Wilton’s Art2Life Creative Visioning Program (CVP), Art2Life Spark, and Jenny Nelson. Laurie is a member of AGNC (Artist Group of North County) and the Oceanside Museum of Art Artist Alliance. Her work is focused mostly on small stories about humanity that touch the human soul.

Art Produce Gallery in North Park will host a special artist talk featuring the four San Diego-based African American visual artists currently showcased in the exhibition "Lineage + Inheritance." Curated by Kamaal Martin of Art, Power, Equity in partnership with UCSD’s Black Studies Project and Art Produce, "Lineage + Inheritance" presents a trans-generational dialogue between established artists Andrea Rushing and Jean Cornwell alongside emerging talents Mensah Bey and Domonique King. The exhibition, which opened March 13 and runs through April 19, 2025, features new works that frame particular generational perspectives on contemporary issues and the life and liberation of Black people. The artists work across diverse media: Rushing primarily with oil on canvas, Cornwell presenting hand-embellished acrylic prints on paper, Bey creating acrylic paintings oncanvas, and King exploring wood, metal, yarn and textiles. "This exhibition reflects a Black aesthetic grounded in community participation, artistic innovation, and liberation," says curator Kamaal Martin. "These concepts have been explored by artists, scholars, and activists throughout the long history of Black art practices in the Americas." The artist talk offers a rare opportunity to hear these four distinctive creative voices in live conversation, discussing their artistic processes, influences, and the themes that connect their work across generations.
