Buy Mom Some Art for Mother's Day

Bird Rock Artist Guild is holding a special Art in the Garden event, perfect for mom.

Still looking for something to do for your mom this weekend (hint: Sunday is Mother’s Day)?

Take her to so she can appreciate both art and nature. The serene event, which is being held on Saturday, is bringing together more than 20 local artists, thanks to the Bird Rock Artist Guild.

The artsy day promises to be fun for the whole family, with live music and light refreshments to keep ears and stomachs satisfied during your perusing. Aja Lee, Bird Rock resident and singer, will be showing off her musical talents while you pick out a gift for mom.

“We have prints, gourds, jewelry, handmade soaps, seamstresses, home décor and garden items,” said Jane Wheeler, owner of Bird Rock Artist Guild. “And we’ll have someone who has organic warm teas for your plants. It’s like liquid compost.”

Is your mom into gardening? Take her to a residential garden, located at 5571 Bellevue Ave., on May 12 from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. Cost to attend is free and art will be on sale for various prices. Guests will also have a chance to donate to a variety of charities, like the La Jolla Historical Society, Art-Reach, The Nest and more.
