Aromas is making a name for itself again. Yes, the little town boasts seven murals, one of them brand spanking new this past week, created by Aromas Hills Artisans. Everyone knows the place is thick with artists of all types. So what’s new? Did you know that for every five artisans there is a writer. There are local authors of everything from magazine articles to children’s books, mysteries, fantasy, history, fiction, philosophy, nonfiction and newspaper articles.
The Dragonfly Gallery at 380 Blohm Ave. in downtown Aromas sells books by local authors like Giselle Rocha, Pat Hanson, Joyce Oroz, Nanci Jarvice, Rose Ann Woolpert, Arthur Oroz, Jewel Auvinen and many more.
Aromas Day is Aug. 24. The Aromas Hills Artisans will be displaying and selling their artwork in the park from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. There will be a writer’s table where you can meet various authors like Debra Smith and others.
The Dragonfly Gallery will be open Aug. 24 and authors Giselle Rocha and Joyce Oroz will be signing copies of their latest books. Grace Laurin will be making custom earrings—you chose the beads, she puts it all together for you. Local artist, Frank Romero, will demonstrate his painting techniques.
Aromas welcomes you to her celebration, her parade, her murals, her artists and her writers. Join the fun and be inspired!
