Bona Fide Books will host an art reception for plein air painter Claudia A. Garza on Fri., May 1, 6:30-8:30 pm at its shop in Meyers. This event is free and open to the public.

Raised in Chicago, Garza is a longtime art lover who began studying with Phyllis Shafer and Dave Russo at Lake Tahoe Community College when she moved to South Lake Tahoe in 2004.

Garza’s landscape collection, “Another Glorious Sierra Day . . . ”—named after the John Muir quote—will be at Bona Fide Books through May. “I’m out almost every warm weekend doing plein air,” says Garza. “Look for the artist with earphones and an easel!”

Bona Fide HQ is located at 1069 Magua Street, #4, behind the Getaway Café in Meyers. The local independent press also hosts a print shop and community mercantile, featuring goods made in Meyers.
