Art About Agriculture encourages artists to investigate the visual resources of the science and practice that sustains human life: agriculture. It strives to develop an understanding and appreciation of food and fiber production, especially among people not traditionally acquainted with agriculture.

Art About Agriculture was established in 1983 as the first annual arts competition and tour exhibit with an agricultural theme. It recognizes professional and emerging Pacific Northwest artists, creates a growing, dynamic, permanent collection of fine art based on, stimulated by, and portraying agriculture, and presents the permanent collection and tour exhibit to rural and urban audiences. The collection is exhibited by loan agreement throughout Oregon and other parts of the Pacific Northwest.

Dual-resident painter and San Francisco Art Institute alum Patricia Schaefer- Robbins will debut a concurrent solo exhibitions at Nous Restaurant.

The exhibition brings a unique global perspective to Ashland’s art scene. Splitting time between
studios in Ashland and London, England, Schaefer-Robbins uses oil and acrylic to weave together
botanical themes, still life, pagan traditions, and ancient lore.

At Nous Restaurant, visitors will get an exclusive look at mythical and ritualistic works, including
"Offering," and pieces from an ambitious new series of larger-scale panels exploring goddess
mythology, such as "Court of the Autumn Equinox" and "Song of the Green Woods."

This display of “Art in the Park” is an example of the largest and most complex Tibetan Buddhist Sand Mandalas in traditional Tibetan Monastic practices. The Kalachakra Mandala is often referred to as "The Wheel of Time". It is easy to say that this is a ‘once-in-a-lifetime’ opportunity for most people. It is so special that it required the Dalai Lama’s permission to create it. The 2700 year-old design has been taught in the monasteries and passed down form monk-to-monk. This display is created by Master Artist Lama Losang Samten. Open to the public every day from 12:30-5pm until Sunday September 20th.

Presented in cooperation with the
Mount Shasta Parks and Recreation District and Jefferson Friends of Tibetan Culture
