Galen painted the California Missions in the 1930s, worked as a WPA artist in the early 40s, and developed a unique style of painting he called "mosaic" in the 1950s. He was a founding member of Thirty and One Artists, the Society that of Western Artists, and, more locally, the Spanishtown Historical Society.
March 28, 2026: The Future of Normal
There is no such thing as a “normal” way to think, act or learn.

Join us for an evening featuring clips from the work-in-progress, including conversation with the audience and special guests from both in front of and behind the camera.
