Campbell Water Tower Artwork at Stone Griffin Gallery
Stone Griffin Gallery invites you to check out our website featuring original and limited edition artwork of Campbell's beloved water tower.
Here at Stone Griffin Gallery, we sell other artwork (of course). California landscapes is probably our featured specialty, along with local landmarks (such as the tower). Figurative and abstract works flesh out our offerings. Anyway -- we decided to purchase the domain name www.campbellwatertower.com and put up a site just of Campbell Water Tower artwork! We have photographs on stretched canvas, original oils, limited edition giclee work, and watercolor pieces. Please check out the website, and please visit the gallery at 234 E Campbell Avenue in Downtown Campbell! |
An End-of-Year Message from the DCBA
The Downtown Campbell Business Association (DCBA) would like to thank you, our friends and neighbors, for all your support in 2011! We're incredibly grateful to those of you who visited our district, shopped in our stores, relaxed in our salons, dined in our restaurants, and patronized our businesses.
The DCBA would also like to give a special shout-out to all the many volunteers who've managed and staffed our events over the year. Did you know that the DCBA is an all-volunteer-run organization? Favorite events such as First Fridays, ArtWalks, the Halloween Trick-or-Treat, and the Bunnies and Bonnets Parade are organized by local shopkeepers, business people, and community volunteers, working many hours behind the scenes. We're proud to have been a sponsor of Sundown Cinema again this summer, to have worked with the Carol of Lights this winter, and to have welcomed the Campbell Chamber of Commerce for their annual Boogie on the Bayou and Oktoberfest events. And let's not forget our biannual Wine Walks, the next one of which will be held on Wednesday, February 8, 2012. Want to view some of our year-end highlights?
