Palo Alto Art Center to get new look

August 26th, 2010 by Altaire Townhomes

The Palo Alto Art Center will undergo a long-awaited $7 million facility remodel and upgrade. The renovation will include aesthetic improvements, building code compliance upgrades and the creation of a children’s wing and new courtyard. Work is scheduled to begin in April 2011.

According to a recent Palo Alto Online article, the Art Center Director, Karen Kienzle, is especially looking forward to the new childrens’ wing.

“When it opened in 1971, the Art Center was intended to be primarily a place for adults, but now more than half our visitors are kids,” she said. “We serve around 7,000 children a year and we’re really bursting at the seams,” she added, describing long lines of paint-covered kids patiently waiting for the sole sink (installed much higher than is easily reachable for children) in one of the rooms used for classes. She said new sinks would be kid-friendly and foot-operated.

The building is the former home of the city hall and its initial design was never considered for its current use as a modern art gallery.

Indoor livability and environmental quality will be a large part of the planned renovation, which is aiming for the environmental “LEED (Leadership In Energy and Environmental Design) Silver” certification.  “Green” improvements will include wraparound decks made of recycled woods, rubber and cork, and counters incorporating recycled paper.

Altaire is excited about the responsible changes that are being made to community assets with a vision towards livability and the future.

Palo Alto Festival of the Arts this weekend 8.28/29

August 24th, 2010 by admin

Artists and craftspeople come together at this annual community extravaganza.  August 28 & 29, 2010 • 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. • University Avenue, Palo Alto

Attracting over 150,000 people from throughout the peninsula, California and the West Coast, the Palo Alto Festival of the Arts celebrates its 29th year on the tree-lined University Avenue in beautiful downtown Palo Alto.

What makes this festival such a success? The answer is simple – it’s the three hundred fine artists and crafters whose display booths are placed back-to-back along University Avenue. This all culminates in attracting a high percentage of fine artists and crafters whose work you’ll see only at a few select shows on the West Coast.

The Italian Street Painting Expo, always a huge hit with the crowd, will again offer fifty chalk artists creating larger-than-life works of art all weekend long on Tasso Street. This year’s new beneficiary of the Italian Street Painting Expo’s Kids Chalk-a-Lot area is the Palo Alto Art Center Foundation.

And it is more than just art. Music, food and drink await all who attend.  There are two stages , on Waverley & Webster, as well as street corner entertainment. Four food courts and 3 wine and beer booths can also be found at this years event. That is a lot of ground to cover.  You can find a map of the festival here to help plan the festivities.

Looking for a particular artist?  A complete list of participating artists can be found on the official website.

What a great way to get out an enjoy a summer weekend.
