There will be a special exhibition of prints by Gary Chafe (1937-2017), printmaker and painter who lived in Santa Barbara his entire life. Primarily inspired by 20th century European impressionism and Japanese brush painting, he was an autodidact who didn’t play politics in the art world. His daughter, Maya, promotes his legacy and preserves his estate. www.garychafe.com
