OWN A PIECE OF BRIDGE PARTY HISTORY
Pasadena Heritage has a tradition of commissioning and showcasing extraordinary artwork for each Bridge Party. For this, the 29th Bridge Party, the work of Kristopher Doe, Pasadena native and prolific artist, was selected to represent what Pasadenans love the most about their iconic bridge.
Kris is a master artist who also teaches college level drawing, painting and art appreciation classes. He has exhibited his paintings throughout California and beyond, with his work featured in top galleries such as the Sullivan Goss Gallery in Santa Barbara, the Santa Paula Arts Center, and the San Luis Obispo Art Center.
The original Artwork titled “First Light” depicts the iconic Colorado Street Bridge in dramatic fashion and you can own the original. The auction for this stunning artwork is now LIVE! AUCTION
