Artspace1616

After brunch, us volunteers paid a visit to artspace1616 which is right next door to Mama Kim's. The featured artist is Phil Amrhein, who's already sold a number of his paintings since his opening reception held back in November. Only two of his black acrylic paintings remain. Other notable artists are Bob Bajorin who's subject matter is young women and David Mayhew, whose abstract paintings is about his passion for architecture. The art works are affordable, the average price in the $450-800.00 range. Artspace1616 deals with all types of art, from abstract, acrylic, oil on panel, and black paint on canvas. After you've finished dining at Mama Kim's, come to Artspace and check them out.

My favorite 2nd Saturday to go to in Sacramento. Always intrigued by the art and the great mix of people there.

I may sound biased as I was the gallery assistant here last year. Yasmina and her husband are awesome and also have a great gallery. It is amazing space and they pick artists and shows that really nurture a persons desire to see and learn about great artworks. I learned a lot while I was working here and met some great artists. They are passionate about what they do and are very accessible and down to earth. The second Saturday shows are fun and attract a great crowd. They feature a good variety of art and artists in each show so there is a lot to see and talk about. Despite being in Del Paso Heights it is a good location and a really nice building. They share a upscale breezeway with the restaurant next door and it provides a great area to sit and talk and have drinks. Their sons usually help out too during events and are awesome guys. It is a great little family in the art world and I miss being there for sure. Next Second Saturday be sure and stop by and see the great show they put on.

I went here for my photography assignment, and the vibe in here is amazing! They're super friendly and have many unique artworks, I'm glad I found this place on yelp!
