SUMMARY:Appetite-Kaitlyn Fusco Solo Exhibition Gallery 1
DESCRIPTION:Appetite- Solo Exhibition by Kaitlyn Fusco\n\n\nExhibition Dates: August 5-August 29th\, 2026\nReception: August 8th\, 2026 \nThe East County Art Association is thrilled to announce Appetite\, a solo exhibition of food fine art paintings by Kaitlyn Fusco this August in Gallery 1.

As they\, say the eye eats too.  \nWe cordially invite you to an extraordinary ordinary evening of delight! Live music\, light refreshments- especially created for this exhibition\, and tasteful art- a visual feast! Join us for a truly special experience and meet the artist behind the vibrant\, and bold colored paintings\, Kaitlyn Fusco. \nReception: August 8th\, 2026\nTime: 5-8pm \nLocation: \nEast County Art Association Gallery\n124 East Main Street\nEl Cajon\, 92020 \n

SUMMARY:Earthly Gardens Solo Exhibition- Dr. Marie Ramos
DESCRIPTION:The East County Art Association proudly presents an exhibition by Dr. Marie Ramos\, celebrating her enduring love of creating art in many forms. \nThis exhibition brings together two distinct yet complementary bodies of work. Dr. Ramos’s fantasy-inspired watercolors invite viewers into imaginative worlds filled with humor\, curiosity\, and unexpected combinations. Unrelated objects meet in playful scenarios that hover delightfully on the edge of weirdness\, encouraging viewers to pause\, smile\, and discover surprising connections. \nIn contrast\, her vibrant and realistic oil paintings radiate warmth\, color\, and joyful energy. Richly rendered and expressive\, these works capture uplifting subjects and feel-good moments that celebrate beauty\, happiness\, and the pleasures of everyday life. \nTogether\, the watercolors and oil paintings reveal Dr. Ramos’s artistic versatility and adventurous creative spirit. Although each medium offers a different visual experience\, the entire collection is united by a continual passion for imagination\, storytelling\, experimentation\, and the joy of making art. \nExhibition Dates: November 4–28Opening Reception: November 14\, 5:00–7:00 PM
