Statement from artist Felicia Rice on the exhibit:
My parents were active members of a vibrant arts community here in Mendocino when I was a summer kid going to their classes at the Mendocino Arts Center. I graduated from Mendocino High in the early 70s as the area was flooding with young people eager to build a new vibrant community. I have returned to town after 50 years to discover that the arts have taken a backseat to commerce. I miss seeing the arts celebrated all over town, in every nook and cranny, particularly on Main Street. So I thought I’d scratch that itch of mine.
