About Small Works
At the San Benito County Arts Council, we are known for our commitment to promoting the arts, and this exhibition is no exception. Small Works has become a beloved, annual tradition, eagerly anticipated by both artists and art lovers and is a shining example of how art can foster a sense of togetherness and charitable giving in our community.
The show will be up for viewing Nov. 24th-Dec. 3rd and will conclude with an Art Party on Friday, Dec. 1st, 5:30-7:30 pm.
This event is a true celebration of our creative communities, with an open invitation for everyone to attend. As the highlight of the evening, visitors have the chance to win a unique piece of art through a raffle, making the event not only an artistic showcase but also an opportunity for attendees to bring home an original artwork.
In addition to enjoying the exhibition, supporters can also purchase tickets to a winter themed Art of Eating: Pick-Up Dinner for the Arts, also taking place on Dec. 1st. This year’s meal will be prepared by chef, Becky Herbert of the Farmhouse Café. Ticket link coming soon.
Both events serve as a significant component of our end-of-year giving campaign, The Art of Giving. All proceeds benefit local arts programs, ensuring that creative opportunities are accessible to all San Benito County residents.
We look forward to an exceptional event and encourage all artists to participate, and the public to join us in celebrating the power of art to enrich our community.
