The Encinitas Civic Center is a hub of many activities that support the management and operations of the town. City Council Chambers are there, as are a number of building departments, just up the hill from the downtown area near the train station.
A charming feature of the civic center is the Art Gallery, in the Encinitas City Hall. I had the pleasure of viewing this gallery for the first time the other day where artist/glassblower Lea de Wit was featured.
Lea’s handcrafted glass art is magnificent, and a true testimony to her talent and creativity as an artist, and a reflection of her excellent training in Italy under glassblowing masters, Elio Quarisa and Davide Salvadore, as well as with renowned glass sculpture artist Karen Willenbrink-Johnsen. It is no surprise that the juried selection process resulted in this solo show for de Wit. Don’t miss it, whether you are a glass collector or not.
De Wit’s works are in galleries and private collections nationally. To view more spectacular photos of her glassblowing, visit her website Lucky Stripe.
Enjoy the show (with music)
