An upcoming art extravaganza is set to unfold across the San Francisco Bay Area, drawing over 340 creators into the spotlight. During the Silicon Valley Open Studios 2025 event, which spans the first three weekends of May, artists from various disciplines will welcome visitors into their creative sanctuaries. This year, two talented individuals from Redwood City are among those sharing their unique visions with the public.

Among the featured artists is Gadget, whose journey began in the tech world before transitioning to the arts. His work showcases an innovative use of materials, blending cast metals and ceramics with unconventional elements. Charles S. Boris also hails from Redwood City, crafting furniture from driftwood and reclaimed timber gathered along Northern California's coastal trails. Their creations reflect a deep connection to nature and resourcefulness.

This annual celebration emphasizes community involvement, presenting a distinct regional focus each weekend. Starting with the Coastside and Northern Peninsula in early May, followed by the mid-Peninsula and concluding with the South Bay, this event offers diverse artistic experiences. Visitors can explore studios during designated hours while preview exhibitions already underway at select locations provide a taste of what's ahead. Through such initiatives, the spirit of creativity continues to flourish, inspiring both creators and admirers alike.
