The Historic Olivas Adobe is now open the second Sunday of each month for visitors, 11 a.m.-3 p.m. Join us on June 13  as we invite all plein air artists to come and paint or sketch on the park grounds. We promise you will find lots of inspiration — from the 160-year-old fuchsia to the rose garden, from the historic two-story rancho home to the bell tower and everything in between.

There will be raffles, historic interpreters and an al fresco gift shop on site. In the small adobe, local artist Laura Jean Jespersen’s exhibit, The Romance of the Adobe, was inspired by Olivas family stories. Her work can be found at https://ljjespersen.weebly.com/romance-of-the-adobe-show.html
