If A Tree Falls: Art Of The Boundary Oak

Sixty-four Bay Area artists memorialize Walnut Creek’s signature Valley Oak, fallen by a windstorm in 2019, giving this 325 year old a second life.

Join the Bedford Gallery in this timely community show that provides a much-needed celebration of local artists and highlights the unifying forces of nature. If a Tree Falls: Art Of The Boundary Oak includes Bay Area artists who work across disciplines from painting and drawing to woodturning and carving. Each artwork—made exclusively for the show—incorporates pieces of Walnut Creek’s beloved Boundary Oak, providing visitors a rare opportunity to see how artists interpret the same base material in diverse ways. The beauty of this exhibition is that the Boundary Oak tree will continue to exist through the thoughtful reimagining of the Bay Area artistic community.
