We are sad to report that on Sunday, November 8, Cafe Lumiere will be closing our doors permanently at 365 Calle Principal in Downtown Old Monterey. That means there are only a few days left to get yelled at by Tanina, grab one of Cirilo’s scones, and get ignored by Brandi.

Friends of Lumiere, please consider donating to Cafe Lumiere's Employee Relief Fund. We want to make sure our employees are taken care of during this time of transition. The money will be disbursed to our current and former employees for their rent, bills and other necessities.

We love you and we’ll see you soon.

Venture Gallery presents a show by William Eatmon, our featured artist for November. We invite you to come and view his paintings. Venture Gallery is now open for in-store shopping Thursdays - Sundays, 10am-6pm.

As our featured artist this month, William Eatmon presents his Tribute Series: paintings, each representative of a major movement in art. Personally, William is most influenced by Klimt and it is evident in both his figurative and abstract works. In his abstract work, you'll find evidence of cosmic objects such as galaxies, nebulae, and stars.

William's artwork will be featured through November 2020. Venture Gallery is located at 260 Alvarado Street in Downtown Old Monterey. Visit our website to shop online for work by our local artists.
