“Within my work I encourage chance associations of disparate visual elements.” — Melissa Arendt

"This body of work, Forage From Fire, is a visual inventory of artifacts that remain of my artist and family’s life extracted from the ashes of the Atlas Peak fire." --Norma Quintana.

RAD radically enriches the community through investment in and stewardship of a new public art district in The City of Napa. Excited to continue to support and grow our youth with our RAD Wall project this summer.

What are some of your favorite ways to be creative? We've seen many during the sketching process, it's amazing to see all the ideas our teens come up with! We still have a few more sessions this summer, sign up if you haven't already. We can't wait to see you tomorrow.

The weather is perfect and biking our RAD’s two-mile footprint along the Napa Valley Vine offers many visual surprises.

This artwork created by @trevorthelinder was inspired by the time he spent traipsing through the hills of the Napa Valley while growing up.

We could not agree more, it takes courage to put your creativity out into the world. We are thankful for all the artists young and old who share their passion to create.

This work from @fintan_magee acts as a monument to the firefighters who have died in the line of duty while also commenting on the cycles of life, death and regrowth after forest fires.

Long walks are better with a dog and inspiring views.

The mural by @felipepantone is meant to be a dynamic experience for those who were already in movement inside the Napa Valley Wine Train - a dynamic work of art that changes with the observer’s point of view.

Our project, Passages, includes poems written about the RAD by three writers. The poems will be painted on a more-than-100-foot-long wall. Pictured art by Cinta Vidal #RADNapa #art

This Utility Box Wrap by Tracy Fitzgerald is a beauty. We love the hard angles and mosaic-style patchwork in the details. #RADNapa #art

We appreciate seeing other art trails pop up around the country! It's great to see other communities coming together to support artists and provide free, public art for all to enjoy. #RADNapa

Sometimes, you just need to get a close-up to get the full detail of the depth and breadth at hand. Hueman's Garden at CIA Copia is one of those pieces. #RADNapa
