Open Studio: Farshid Bazmandegan Saturday, January 10, 2026 | 5 p.m. — 7 p.m. Location: CH Visual Art Studio (In the Administration building across from the Museum) The California Center for the Arts Museum invites the public to a culminating open studio with Farshid Bazmandegan, marking the conclusion of his 2025—26 artist residency. This open studio offers visitors an opportunity to engage with Bazmandegan’s research, materials, and work in progress, providing insight into an evolving practice shaped by memory and displacement. During the residency, Bazmandegan has been developing a new body of work rooted in a childhood memory of a painting of a black horse that once hung in his family home in Iran. Through sculpture and digital media, he explores fantasy as a method for navigating exile and imagining return. The works on view during the open studio represent an active phase of inquiry rather than a finished presentation. Bazmandegan will continue to develop this project over the coming year, with the completed body of work to be presented as part of the 2025–26 In Studio Artist Residency exhibition, opening June 5, 2026.

Join us at Oceanside Museum of Art for a hands-on Silkscreen Printmaking Workshop on Sunday, April 12, from 2–5 p.m. Guided by artist and educator Frol Boundin, Associate Faculty for Art at MiraCosta College, participants will learn the fundamentals of silkscreen printing and create their own original prints to take home. This workshop is inspired by OMA’s "Matrix Multiplied: Hybrid Approaches to Printmaking" exhibition, which explores the dynamic world of printmaking and the idea of the “matrix,” which is the surface from which multiple prints are created. The exhibition highlights how artists use printmaking techniques to produce repeated images while experimenting with variation, layering, and color. Silkscreen printing is one of the most iconic methods for multiplying images, making it a perfect entry point into the themes of the exhibition. During the session, Frol will introduce the tools and processes of silkscreen printing and guide participants step-by-step through preparing a screen, applying ink, and pulling prints. All materials are included in the workshop fee, and no prior experience is necessary—just curiosity and a willingness to get a little messy. Come explore the art of making multiples and leave with a set of your own hand-printed works. Ticket Prices: Adult: $75 Member: $55 Space is limited. Register today!
