Fine jewelry designer Dorian Webb is thrilled to announce a special collaboration with Thelma Harris Art Gallery at her store at 1300 First Street, Suite 309 in Napa. This exciting exhibition will showcase the work of prominent, contemporary African American artists, including Bill Dallas, Gene Pearson, Karla Reid, Lionel Lofton, and Richard Mayhew that Thelma Harris Art Gallery features.
On Saturday, August 31st, from 11:30am to 2:30pm, to complement the rich cultural history of African Americans in the arts that the Blue Note Jazz Festival highlights, Dorian Webb will host a Meet and Greet with renowned gallerist Thelma Harris. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage with Ms. Harris and explore the inspiring collection of paintings and sculpture on display. On Sunday, September 1st, from 1:00pm to 3:00pm, Dorian Webb will host an "In Conversation" with Thelma Harris to discuss the showcased works and to offer contextual background and personal reflections of her decades of experience in the art world.
These events are an unparalleled opportunity to explore the synergy between fine art and fine jewelry as seen through an African American lens. As Dorian Webb states, “What excites me most about this collaboration is the ability to showcase not only the work of both established and emerging African American artists in Napa's vibrant downtown, but also the rare opportunity to have Thelma Harris join us to share her perspective on the pieces presented. As the premier gallery for African American art in the Bay Area, Thelma Harris Art Gallery is known throughout the world for its ability to identify and support impactful artists. Bringing Thelma and her favorite artwork to Napa is a once in a lifetime experience."
Alongside the fine art and jewelry, attendees will also have the pleasure of enjoying wine tastings from Vineyard 29.
