“I’m excited about Santa Clarita meeting their local artists who are showcasing their work,” Dominguez said. “It’s a really powerful statement that we’re making here.

An eclectic mix of styles were represented at the show, including water color, impressionist and photography.

The artists, whose works were represented at the event, were on hand to speak about their productions and the SCAA.
