Claremont Community Foundation and Claremont Canopy present Hadi Toron. As a diplomat, Hadi Toron traveled extensively around the world, developing deep emotional attachments to different environments, societies and traditions. His subject matter ranges from the villages of his native Syria, to the whirling Dervishes of the Sudan, to the natural beauty of the Caribbean.

He tells us stories; he reminds us that we are universally connected; he offers glimpses of the life pulsating around us, ardent or stark, constrained or free, blissful or gloomy, and always worth experiencing.
The Claremont Forum & the Prison Library Project: 586 W. First St., Claremont.
The macro lens on Jim Manley’s Nikon camera is a perfect tool for up close work for his exhibit “Closer Looks." It not only takes close-ups, it also gives a socially acceptable "prop" for his newfound fascination with seemingly insignificant subjects. He feels this topic will give voice to the opportunities for finding sanctuary in the smallest places. 6 to 9 p.m.
Claremont Museum of Art: 200 W. First St., at the Claremont Depot.
“Intersecting at the Edge,” curated by Dion Johnson, juxtaposes recent works by Los Angeles artists Heather Gwen Martin and Eric Zammitt with paintings and sculptures by seminal Claremont artist, Karl Benjamin. Using bold colors and clean edges each artist expresses a distinct sensibility that may allude to the refinement of architectural structure, the mesmerizing dazzle of echoing shapes, or the vastness of atmospheric luminosity. The exhibition, sponsored by Louis Stern Fine Arts, and Beverly and Beth Benjamin, will be on view through September 16. Enjoy vintage music with Mark and Patrick on the Depot plaza 6 to 9 p.m.
Claremont Heritage Ginger Elliott Exhibition Center: 840 N. Indian Hill Blvd., Claremont at the Garner House.

Hotel Casa 425 + Lounge: 425 W. First St. Claremont.
The Old West has always been depicted as a place of majesty and mayhem; a lawless land capable of serenity and beauty but prone to danger and violence. Classic western art, including the works of masters like Charles M. Russell and Frederic Remington, contributed to these myths. Paintings packed with detail and movement, piercing portraits of cowboys, natives and their horses, characterized the artists enamor with this untamed place and untamed people. This art had a profound effect on the rest of the country’s, even the rest of the world’s, idea of the American West. In his new collection, “New West,” A G ‘Gus’ Castañeda reconceptualizes the myth of the west. Building on his previous show, California Outsider, A G Castañeda has continued his caustic style and stripped down the details and clarity of the classic western art to tell its story in a fittingly rugged form. A G Castañeda is a self-taught artist who works with water color and oil pastel. Mixing immiscible mediums into a symbiotic relationship that creates masterful pieces of art. His love for his native home, California, and its history are reflected in his art. A G Castañeda continues to expand his palette and never fears to push the boundaries of any genre. 6 to 9 p.m.

SPACE Gallery & Records - Claremont: 245 W. Bonita Ave., Claremont.
“Dream Sequence I & II.” In a new body of work, artist Todd Molinari presents vignettes, memories and traces of his dreams. In his ongoing exploration of the unconscious psyche through dream work and Jungian analysis, the artist not only engages in the ongoing process of reconnecting his ego with the Self, but in doing so has realized an inexhaustible font for his artistic practice. In sourcing the images, affects and emotional impressions that result from coming into contact with the psyche, the artist is able to refashion his approach to art while always keeping his vision fresh and more engaged with the outer world. Veering from the quasi-realistic that points to representation to more ambivalent and spectral imagery that hints at darker shadows, these pieces present to the viewer an invitation to reflect on his or her own inner life. Music at 9 p.m. by EDGES. edges666.bandcamp.com.
