Join us at the Santa Paula Art Museum on Saturday, November 13, 2021, for the premiere of The 13th Annual Art About Agriculture, featuring 66 fresh works of art by 60 distinct artists. Art About Agriculture is a juried, group show presented annually by the Ag Art Alliance, a collective formed in 2007 by Santa Paula artists John Nichols and Gail Pidduck.
