Samta Mnnica High School art students’ annual exhibit, “Dia de los Muertos,” will open Tuesday, October 30, 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the Roberts Art Gallery, which is located in the History Building on the Santa Monica High School campus.

Snacks will be served and some items will be available for purchase, including very cool T-shirts designed by Samohi students, with proceeds benefiting school arts programs.

Roberts is the oldest art gallery in continuous existence in Los Angeles County.

The last exhibit at Roberts featured landscapes from the WPA that are part of the Roberts’ permanent collection. The Samohi PTSA provided funds to re-mat and re-frame some of paintings.

The gallery participated in the recent “Pico Artists at Work” celebration.

Samohi photography teacher David Wood is in charge of the gallery this year.
