Can you believe it's that time...again??
We've selected our illustrators with care to bring five new faces to Chemers Gallery. You'll be treated to everything from Mexican folk art, fantasy & fairy tales to the feminine touch, from whimsical stylized faces to art that is all boy...Something for everyone to love and enjoy!
Introducing our talented crew...
Michael Hague
Brett Helquist

Plus, special guest authors Kathleen Krull & Paul Brewer
What a stellar line-up!!
Presale of all books and artwork begins Tuesday, October 1st and will continue until each illustrator has pre-sold 200 books or close of business (5pm PST) on Saturday, November 30th, whichever comes first. More details to be announced, so keep checking back for the latest buzz!
Come for the art and books and stay all day!
As in the past, we'll have our tent set up for the illustrator talks, demos and presentation. Where else in California can you view original children's book illustrations, meet the artists and get your books signed and dedicated all at the same time?
Chemers Gallery has chosen Chapman University College of Educational Studies K-12 Literacy Programs as the beneficiary for our event. CES provides world class tutoring to K-6 grade students regardless of financial resources and creates custom libraries of books for students to take home. They also provide after school programs in the community and a pathway to bring 1st generation students to the university level.
