Executive Director, Barbara Dolder stated, “The Annual Art in the Garden Tour represents Roseville Arts’ major fundraiser for the year.  Funds from the tour help to ensure Roseville’s future as an important and favorite destination point for tourists and art lovers. Supported by donations, most activities offered at the Blue Line Gallery are free to participants including fun family activities held in the gallery every Saturday afternoon, school field trips, and special family-oriented events.  The tour is a great way to enjoy a fantastic day while supporting the arts and culture in our community.”
