Local Artist Ryan Campbell

Ric met Ryan when they were in a show together in Palm Desert a few years ago. Ric was initially impressed by Ryan’s talent and sincere dedication to his career as an artist but grew to appreciate him on a higher level for Ryan’s efforts in using his knowledge and talent to encourage young people to discover and explore art.  In the spirit of honoring Ric’s vision for THE NUMBER NINE and his wish to support artists in their work, I am so pleased to welcome Ryan to work here for his current efforts with the Desert Recreation District’s summer art education classes and in preparing for his November solo show at The Coachella Valley Art Scene in Cathedral City.

UPDATE! Ryan ended up finding other space to use to create his truly beautiful November 2015 show. But his spirit is a part of THE NUMBER NINE and we’ll continue our support of him in any way we can. Go Ryan – make art happen!
