Description

Architects, artists and creative types abound near White Rock Lake, which is how Hexter’s under-funded art program came to benefit from the PTA-created White Rock Home Tour and White Rock Art Festival. The previously separate fundraisers have raised enough to afford a full year of art education, an after-school drama club and art and music supplies for Hexter. To strengthen the event for the school and community, D Magazine and D Home are sponsoring the events, which will be held concurrently on Earth Day weekend with this year’s being April 21-22, 2007.

The home tour is the area’s only one known to feature contemporary homes exclusively and the renowned architects that built them. Several this year are owned by architects. The juried art festival is widely regarded by artists and visitors as exhibiting only well-known artists who create true fine art.

Artist overview: HGTV-featured Susan Tinkler O’Neal, local icon Dahlia Woods and more than 65 other acclaimed local artists exhibit their pastels, oil paintings, ceramics, sculpture, fine jewelry, textiles and more.

Other attractions: Meet Pedro Aguirre, Forest Grove architect, and Lyle Rowley, Vinemont architect. Possibly other architects TBD. Kids activities free with adult admission and food/beverage sales in Art Café at the Art Festival.
