'Playing With Perception' is an exhibition of mind-bending optical illusion paintings by local artist Richard Weiss here at Highlight Gallery in Mendocino. Henry Matisse has said: “We should always see life as we did in childhood.” Adhering plainly to this statement, Richard says, "I enjoy creating interactive mind bending optical illusion paintings. The work is in relief but is painted to appear like a conventional flat picture. Movements of the observer result in fluid distortions of the pictorial image, engaging viewers into a playful participation. The goal of my work is to infuse whimsical happiness to viewers by surprising and engaging them into a playful participation, allowing them to create their own unique experience of the optical illusion."

It’s going to be a hoppy summer thanks to the Kelley House Museum’s new exhibit on Mendocino’s beer brewing heritage. On Tap traces the deep roots and rich stories behind one of Northern California’s most spirited industries—from the small breweries that served the local lumber workers to the craft beer renaissance that put Mendocino on the national brewing map. Kelley House members are invited to an opening reception on Saturday, June 7th, 4:00pm – 5:30pm.

The exhibit showcases the evidence left behind by the 19th century breweries through archival photographs, newspaper clippings, and maps, while spotlighting the people—German immigrants, local entrepreneurs, and counterculture trailblazers—who turned hops and barley into a beverage that has sustained the community for almost two centuries. Well, except for those Prohibition years, but even then the beer makers and consumers could not be thwarted! (You’ll have to visit the exhibit to discover what a “blind pig” was.) Learn how the region’s natural abundance, independent spirit, and love of experimentation gave rise to groundbreaking breweries like the North Coast Brewing Company, one of the pioneer craft beer makers in the United States. Guest Curator: Robert Dominy.

We are pleased to host an exhibition of beautiful, colorful paintings by Ellen Heise! She paints tranquil landscapes and is known for her 'paintings inside paintings'. Since she was a child, she had already made up her mind to become an artist who would travel and capture the beauty of nature by pen, brush and colors. She feels lucky to do what she really likes to do. She loves it when her audience tells her that they want to live inside her paintings where it is peaceful, quiet and relaxing...a moment to escape from daily life. Her show will run from August 1st through September 1st, 2025. We are located at 10480 Kasten Street in Mendocino and are open daily from 11am to 4pm. On August 9th, from 4pm to 7pm during Mendocino's Second Saturday event, Ellen will be in the gallery for a meet and greet so please come by and see her wonderful art and say hello!

Join us for a one-hour hike along the former trade routes of the Northern California Indigenous People and visit sacred indigenous sites. We hike every Thursday as a group to encourage health. The hike meanders along dirt roads, up and down oak-crested hills in one of the most beautiful valleys in California. We leave from the HREC office at the center of the facility. Participants must walk with the HREC/Moai leader, we stay together as a group. We start hiking promptly at 7:30 AM. Hikers who miss the group may not hike alone. We hike about 2 miles in one hour. If you are walking-challenged, please consider walking sticks. Don't be late!
