Betty Loeffler Art Reception
The public is invited to a very special Art Reception and sale for the extensive works of Castro Valley’s Betty Loeffler, Sunday, December 1, from 3:00- 5:00 pm at the Castro Valley Center for the Arts (19501 Redwood Road). Betty’s work which includes handmade paper, prints, and monotypes spans almost 100 years.
Betty and her husband, Dr. Robert Loeffler, moved to Castro Valley in 1960. They raised their five daughters in Castro Valley and Bob opened his plastic surgery practice there. Both Loefflers were actively involved in the Bay Area art community, garnering awards along the way. Betty was influenced and studied under Lundy Seaquist and took workshops from Mel Ramos and Wayne Thiebaud. Betty died in 2022.
Daughter Pam Holloway shares, “This is an opportunity to have an original piece of art at a very reasonable price. Most important to the family is that Mom’s work be out in the world bringing people joy.” There are framed and unframed offerings. Refreshments will be served. Artist and curator Susan Sarti will play piano and photographer Bruce Cassaday will accompany on trumpet. Any questions, please call 808-754-0393.
