It's just begun! The Lighthouse District’s own Monterey County Film Commission is participating in Monterey County Weekly's annual campaign in support of 101 local nonprofits, Monterey County Gives!

(If you're age 35 and/or younger, your donation may help them qualify for an added award of $1,000 if they get the most donations.)

Never Mind! Amir's Grill and Bar Is NOT Closing. Which Is Awesome.

Green Chalk Contemporary, located at 616 Lighthouse Avenue in Monterey, is proud to present two simultaneous exhibitions, September 17 - November 30: one by ceramicist Rob Barnard, and one by artist Sharron Antholt.
Sharron Antholt references architectural and sculptural shapes from India in her new work, particularly from her recent stay in Tamil Nadu, in South India in 2013. By reducing images of fortresses, temples, and sculptural forms to flat shapes, Antholt attempts to find the essence of these forms. It becomes like a map, which in its flattened state allows us to grasp something too large to comprehend. In these new works on paper and canvas, Antholt refers to what she calls "a feeling of condensed or collapsed time which powerfully permeates everyday life in India; the sensation of thousands of years existing in a single moment."
Rob Barnard, a pioneer of unglazed wood-fired work in the US, is a seminal figure in American ceramic art. In the three and a half decades since he trained under the renowned ceramic artist Kazuo Yagi at the prestigious Kyoto University for the Fine Arts, he has had solo exhibitions throughout the US and in Japan, Great Britain, and the Netherlands.
Green Chalk Contemporary art gallery is open Tuesday - Saturday, 2pm-7pm and by appointment. For more information, please phone Ami-Sue Lawless at 831-601-0534.
