This past Sunday marked a truly special occasion at Lusanet Collective as we proudly opened the highly anticipated exhibition of the remarkable artist Ruby Vartan. The evening was filled with excitement, gratitude, and inspiration as our community came together to celebrate art, creativity, and the incredible talent that Ruby brings to the canvas.
From the moment the doors opened, guests were captivated by the vibrant energy in the space. Ruby’s pieces—layered with emotion, movement, and a distinct style that is uniquely her own—set the tone for an unforgettable gathering. We are humbled and grateful to everyone who attended, supported, and helped make this opening a success. The warmth of our community is what fuels Lusanet Collective, and Sunday evening was a beautiful reminder of how powerful it is when art brings people together.
A Surprise Visit from David Laurell of Burbank Leader
Adding to the excitement of the evening, we were honored with a surprise visit from David Laurell, celebrated writer and contributor to the Burbank Leader. His presence was a wonderful acknowledgment of both Ruby’s artistry and the growing impact of Lusanet Collective in our community. We are eagerly looking forward to seeing his reflections on the exhibition featured in an upcoming article in the Burbank Leader. Stay tuned—it will be another meaningful way to relive the energy and spirit of this special opening night.
A Successful Night for Art and Collectors
The evening was not only a success in attendance but also in appreciation for Ruby’s work. We are delighted to share that many pieces were sold during the opening reception, with collectors and admirers eager to bring Ruby’s art into their homes. Each purchase represents not only support for Ruby’s career but also a commitment to the thriving arts community we are building together at Lusanet Collective.
For those who were unable to join us on Sunday, there is still time to experience this exhibition in person. Ruby Vartan’s art will remain on view until the end of the month, offering visitors the chance to engage with her work in an intimate and inspiring setting.
