TwoUpcoming Events: Auto Show and Golf Tournament!

http://gualalaarts.org/2015/07/gualala-arts-auto-show/

July 18 & 19
If you are a car enthusiast and love the nostalgia of old cars, the sound and fury of dragsters, the art of hot rods, customs and modifieds, looking at original cars you lusted after in your youth, and/or rare and unusual contemporary automobiles, you’ll love the Gualala Arts Auto Show. Located on the beautifully landscaped grounds of the Gualala Arts Center, this is a car show you can actually stroll through, talk to the owners and appreciate each car, truck or motorcycle for the piece of art it is. The event celebrates its 7th Anniversary this year and we expect it to be the best Gualala Arts Auto Show yet.
Best of Show in 2014 was awarded to the 1958 Chevrolet Yeoman station wagon created and owned by the Auto Show’s featured guest Art Himsl. The Terrace Award winners were a 1937 Chevrolet Coupe owned by Gene and Linda Figueiredo and a 1923 Volksrod Roadster designed, built and owned by Kent Fuller who was a previous Auto Show featured guest. 20 trophies in 10 classes and 15 Judges and Other Awards were presented to the winners among the 98 entries.
