An Inverness-based artist acclaimed for her “Museum of Curious Thought” installations and the executive director of Gallery Route One, Betty Woolfolk was known for her endless imagination and tireless dedication to the arts.
Woolfolk passed away on June 29, at the age of 69, after a long illness. This weekend, Gallery Route One, the Point Reyes Station alternative art gallery she co-founded in 1983, pays tribute to Woolfolk and her lifetime of community contributions with a memorial gathering on Sunday, July 24 at 5 pm. Donations in Woolfolk’s name can be made to Gallery Route One.
In August, Gallery Route One will dedicate its annual fundraising art exhibition, “The Box Show,” to the memory of Woolfolk, who created the show with her husband Nick seventeen years ago.
