Hands Across the Sand is a movement made of people of all walks of life and crosses political affiliations. This movement is not about politics; it is about protection of our coastal economies, oceans, marine wildlife, and fishing industry. Let us share our knowledge, energies and passion for protecting all of the above from the devastating effects of oil drilling.

This evening bring your lawn chair and blanket over to DaKine and check out "Somewhere Near Tapachula".

This documentary looks at a unique Mexican Orphanage and  the unique surf community that they have pioneered in Tapachula, a coastal city with no other wave riders. "To these kids the ocean is not just a place of fun, its an escape from what life used to be."

On Saturday, January 16th from 7:00pm to 10:00pm, The Gallery Club is proud to present the art exhibit "THREE MAN ARMY" featuring artists Gary Propper, David Burton, and Bruce Reynolds.

Although most noted as a world championship surfer and entertainment industry guru, The Gallery will showcase The Artist, Gary Propper. A master of collage art, Gary has shown in big galleries in Los Angeles and sold his collage art for many years to fans around the world. The messages in his art focus on genuinely spreading peace and love.

David Burton has amazed people with his playful and at times poignant pop assemblage art. He has won awards locally and nationally in 3-D art for originality and public appeal. Curator Claudia Pastorius comments, "Burton takes images ingrained in our minds from the bombardment of mass consumer culture and redefines their meaning in mesmerizing compositions that are alive, humorous, insightful, and innovative."

Bruce Reynolds' sense of space, symmetry, surf, and positive intent have earned him awards in sculpture at juried show around the country, a place in many prestigious permanent collections, and a stunning solo show at Brevard Art Museum in 2007, "Running With Scissors". His assemblage art possesses strength in simplicity. With clever use of machine parts and found objects he creates clean compositions and thought-provoking figures and forms.

Each artist has a unique vision and artistic techniques for sharing it. What they have in common is a love for surfing, soulful messages, quick humor, and the use of found objects and images. "They each love to take the world apart, and put it back together!" That is the Three Man Army. The show promises to be aesthetically and energetically provocative.

The art exhibit opening event will feature an opportunity to meet and greet with the artists, complimentary gourmet appetizers provided Thematics Catering, musical entertainment by Two DJ's Pedro and Loammi Contreras, and a cash bar for beer and wine.

The Gallery will show works by Reynolds, Burton, and Propper from January 16th until March 6th.
