Each year, our PBK association holds its annual conference at Asilomar in Pacific Grove. What many may not realize is we are a stone’s throw from the heart of the California Impressionist movement of the late-19^th and early 20^th century. Many of the masterpieces of this art movement are on display at the Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento, including E. Charlton Fortune, Granville Redmond, William Wendt and many others. Many of their painting are of landscapes and seascapes in and near Asilomar.

The Crocker describes their art movement thusly:

“Once Impressionism took hold in California, the style proved broadly popular and long-lived, as it seemed an appropriate means of capturing California’s climate, terrain, color, sunshine, and identity. Like Impressionists elsewhere, Californians made their art modern through light, color, and broken brushwork, though many of their subjects—the Sierra, rolling hills, expressive trees, the coast, and the sea.”

Come join us for a docent-led tour of this collection and other California artists who came after, including Wayne Theibaud, Gregory Kondos and others.
