    Wayne Campbell: Residuum Walkthrough

    Join us for an enriching experience as Bolinas artist Wayne Campbell leads us through the current exhibition of his metaphorical steel sculpture installations in the Main Gallery. Campbell is thoughtful, with broad interests and easy humor, and will share stories about his inspirations, methods, and his many collaborations with remarkable people. Much of his life’s work has been informed by his art education and interest in many mediums. His passion for mountain climbing led to his mountain rescue leadership, and that expertise, along with art and architectural drafting, led him to pioneer extraordinary indoor climbing walls and gyms. Since 1998, he has been head set designer and a master rigger for Zaccho Dance Theater, with dancers high in the air dancing off towers, in cathedrals, and in other spaces that excite Campbell’s love of creative challenges. His stories are lively and insightful.

    Gallery Talk: Lloyd Kahn

    Please join us for a fascinating gallery talk by Lloyd Kahn in the main gallery, where his current exhibition is installed. There is a lot to consider in Kahn’s wide-ranging life as an innovator, author, editor, photographer, builder, activist, traveler, athlete, homesteader, neighbor, influencer, pioneer of green building, and, for 50 years, owner of Shelter Publications, Inc. in Bolinas. He grew up in San Francisco, earned a BA from Stanford University in 1957, ran a base newspaper in the military, dropped out of the business world, and joined the unbridled creativity of the 1960s counterculture and back-to-the-land movement. His first writing was as an editor for the iconic Whole Earth Catalog. He then became a leading innovator in building and documenting handmade homes and lifestyles. His early book, Shelter, presented structural designs worldwide, followed by books of wildly imaginative hand-built contemporary structures.
