Update on Ethnic Arts

Ethnic Arts

Get in this week! Otherwise it's too late!

Decorative, ritual, and utilitarian objects to bring the cultures of the world to you. Visit us at http://ethnicarts.com or at Travelers Market in Santa Fe

For our Bay Area friend!

Pictures of our Equinox party, thank you Michael Warner

I truly enjoyed the process of watching this event unfold! The closing party has happened, and it was a smash hit!
The talent and the love was abound!
Eleanor you rock!
And the team pulled it off with out a hitch!
Thank you for the opportunity.

Put your party hat on and come celebrate Ethnic Arts' long adventure in Berkeley. We will party from 2-10pm on Saturday, March 19th with food, music and sales.

Some friends who are part of the store's history will show their work: We welcome back Mare Simonet with works on paper, Maggie Wihnyk with her exquisite romantic beaded jewelry and the photographs of Jon Kaplan, our simpatico landlord.

The multi-ethnic food will be catered by Francisco Jimenez, with additions of African groundnut stew and barbecue.

We start at 2pm with an hour of Cuban music by a neighborhood group, Calle Ocho. The quiet music turns celebratory at 8 when the African drums come out. It's dancing time then, especially if David Marsh is able to come.
