OB Historical Society Presents:
Landscapes Rediscovered
Featuring John DeBeck
—Thurs., Nov. 21st at 7PM
at P.L. United Methodist Church,
1984 Sunset Cliffs Blvd., O.B.
John DeBeck, former long-time School Board Member will present a program on the recovered San Diego Unified School District art collection, an extraordinary project he accomplished that benefits historians, school children and all San Diegans.
When serving on the School Board, John found out that the district owned a significant amount of W.P.A. and donated art that had gone missing or was set aside. These works, approximately 100 canvasses, were unseen by the public for decades.
These include depression-era paintings from acclaimed San Diego artists Charles Reiffel and Maurice Braun, including landscapes of Point Loma. Please join us and hear about the rediscovered art brought back to the public.
