After over a year of creating from home studios and working in new online communities, Tierra artists have come forth with an explosion of passion and an invigorated zest for making art. By delving deeper into their own interior landscapes, original writings and words are woven into poetry, characters stitched into dolls, images conjured for divination, and intergalactic friendships forged. Whether on paper, thread, paint, or clay, these artists have accessed new dimensions of their creative practices and brought imaginative ideas into fruition.
Tierra del Sol Gallery presents Hollywood, Camera, Action!, the first Studio Artist
curated exhibition at the Chinatown location. Artist Evan Hynes, selected works
from six Studio Artists: Catherine Benita, Justin Braden, Jose Hernandez, Daniel
Padilla, Jeffrey Rinsky and Zack Stewart to be in dialog with his own imagery that
centers on Hollywood, movies, and the characters that inspire him.
Reception at Tierra del Sol Gallery May 21, 6 – 9pm
Show runs from May 21 – July 9
Leul Asfaw
The Storm Clouds are Leaving
July 16 – September 3, 2022
Tierra del Sol proudly presents Leul Asfaw: The Storm Clouds are Leaving. This is his first solo
exhibition with the Gallery, since joining the Tierra del Sol Art Studio program in 2012. Asfaw
creates lush land and cityscapes that reflect his travels and his interests in the language of spaces and places. He is drawn to color-rich vistas that allow him to express the diverse palettes of natural and built environments.
Asfaw constructs his landscapes with repetitive strikes of colored pencil on paper, often giving his work the feel of a painting. With his attention to color, he thoroughly works the medium, saturating the paper and boldly transforming layers of hues into forms that delineate structure as well as
suggest something more poetic.
Tierra del Sol Gallery presents 10 x 10, a massive group exhibition featuring submissions from nearly all Tierra del Sol Studio program participants. This exhibition continues the gallery’s annual tradition to showcase the collective energy that makes our organization vital to communities from Upland to Sunland and beyond.

Show runs November 12th – December 23rd, 2022

When a loose moose wanders into town holding a Molson Canadian beer and gets stuck in the Polish neighbor’s camper trailer, four generations of an Italian/Canadian immigrant family from Calabria in Southern Italy soon realize the moose isn’t the only one who is stuck, displaced, and confused.
The Sensory friendly show is Sunday April 23 at 2pm. A Sensory Friendly performance is a theater production that welcomes individuals with sensory needs, including people on the autism spectrum, as well as first-time theatergoers and young children.
