First Friday at the Grace Hudson Museum

August 5 from 5 to 8 p.m. As always, admission is free and the community is warmly welcome.

The evening will feature cool jazz created by Duologue, comprised of bassist Pierre Archain and trumpeter Carlos Abdiel Hernandez Rivera.

The Museum also has on display a pop-up exhibition featuring the low-relief casted paper handiwork of Fort Bragg artist and sculptor Neno Villamor. Villamor will also be leading a demonstration and papermaking workshop at the Museum on August 7 from 12 to 3 p.m.

This will also be the final First Friday to view the Museum’s current exhibition, Pulped Under Pressure: The Art of Handmade Paper. The exhibit showcases exquisitely hand-crafted artworks all made from paper, while also exploring important social issues of the day. Visitors can also check out the core galleries devoted to Grace Hudson’s artwork, Pomo basketry, and the history of the Hudson-Carpenter family, as well as take a stroll or guided tour through the Wild Gardens. And, of course, Little Bear and his friends will preside over his popular table of Native American tools and toys. Light refreshments will be served.
