2nd Exhibit Opening and Artists Reception


The Imperial Valley Desert Museum invites you to the 

Exhibit Opening & Artist reception for

Collections


Saturday, July 14th 6pm - 10pm @ the Museum, 11 Frontage Road in Ocotillo, CA

Three new exhibits explore the role of collections in our lives. First, the Collectors exhibit features the life-long devotion of community members to the objects they collect. Second, the next installment of the on-going What we are Curating Today! exhibit displays the fruit's of one man's documentary efforts to collect images of 1930's Imperial Valley. The third exhibit features the contemporary artwork of Ivan Soto, the founder of the El Centro 7-Day chapter. The El Centro chapter was the second chapter formed in California  dedicated to community service-based programs. Ivan's art reflects his passion and shows the introspective side of creating collections. 

The Artist Reception and Exhibit Opening on July 14th will feature the musical talents of our museum staff (it's ok, they're professionals) and light refreshments. Come and meet our local collectors and celebrate the second exhibit opening at the new Imperial Valley Desert Museum.
