Guests are invited sip on fine wines and taste a variety of delicacies at the beautiful Park Hyatt Aviara Resort Golf Club & Spa's newly renovated Lawn. This is an elegant VIP event for true fine wine lovers, located in one of San Diego County's most beautiful coastal cities – Carlsbad. The limited number of tickets sell out quickly (due to the rarity of the wines being poured). A champagne reception is just the prelude to an evening of sampling hard-to-find trophy wines, some already out of circulation and impossible to find are poured, to an adoring crowd dressed in their finest casual/elegant resort wear.

All are invited to join us at Sparks Gallery at 11:30 a.m. on Sunday June 29 for a casual coffee conversation with Southern California mixed-media artist and educator, Kathleen Kane-Murrell and explore her latest exhibition, "Chasing Shadows." Kathleen is a charm of the Californian art world and has dedicated herself to education and the cultivation of art, establishing the award- winning children’s art program, Fine Artists™. She will be discussing her journey of creation and inspirations, particularly for her exhibition "Chasing Shadows" which is showing at Sparks Gallery in the Gaslamp District until July 6. Inspired by a childhood memory of Peter Pan, Kathleen Kane-Murrell’s "Chasing Shadows" explores the ephemeral nature of light and form. Using suspended plexiglass, she creates layered, shifting compositions where shadows become an integral part of the artwork—always present yet often overlooked. In a fast-paced world that demands quick judgments, Kane-Murrell invites viewers to slow down, engage in deep looking, and discover the quiet beauty in the fleeting. Her work is a meditation on time, transformation, and renewal, offering a space for contemplation and discovery. Visit: sparksgallery.com/ Sparks Gallery on Facebook / Instagram
