Tony Peters, Wade Koniakowsky, and Carol Beth Rodriguez will present their unique colorful canvasses, Joe Chiodo acclaimed comics artist will present his latest designs, and veteran cartoonist Jim Whiting will demonstrate the skill behind his award winning work.

Meet students of The Children’s School in La Jolla, and hear their stories of the Great Masters’ work recreated in their own exhibition of mini masterpieces. And kids can pet the cutest pooch on the planet when they meet Baxter, the lovable therapy dog.
