Since its inception in 1952, the Festival has steadily grown gaining worldwide recognition for excellence in the arts, attracting artists, collectors and curators alike. Featuring more than 260 award-winning artists from around the country, a celebrated entertainment lineup, special exhibits and a cornucopia of food, beer and wine, the Festival welcomes some 30,000 patrons every Labor Day weekend. The Festival had humble beginnings on a simple beach in Sausalito (where the Spinnaker Restaurant is now located); at one point it was also staged in a school parking lot as well as at City Hall before being moved in 1988, to the Army Corps of Engineers Bay Model site along the waterfront in Marinship Park. Sausalito has long been regarded as a great venue for artists and creative spirits due to its natural beauty and location. In the early 1800’s, weekend painters would arrive on Sausalito’s shores having sailed over from San Francisco to paint scenes of tall ships against the majestic backdrop of the bay. Today, Sausalito is home to hundreds of artists with working studios and many fine art galleries. The caliber and energy of the Sausalito Art Festival truly transforms this charming seaside village into a three-day “Camelot” of art and community.

In addition to painting, she is an accomplished silk screen printmaker. A graduate of University of California, Santa Cruz, she lives in Marin County with her artist husband, Steve Emery. Her canvas for the art festival poster was inspired by the view of Sausalito, the Golden Gate Bridge and the San Francisco Bay from the hills above Tiburon. An avid hiker, backpacker, and runner, Lipinski paints oil on canvas from her photographs in her San Anselmo studio, often working in large formats. Her art combines a love of nature with her dedication to realism, attention to detail, and her ability to capture the quality of light. Lipinski’s work has been exhibited at the Triton Museum of Art, the Morris Graves Museum of Art, and in other galleries from San Francisco to New York. She has work in many private and corporate collections, and paints on commission for a wide range of clients. Exhibiting annually at the Sausalito Art Festival since 1981, she has received numerous first-place and second-place awards in both painting and printmaking. Lipinski’s paintings and limited edition prints may be viewed at her San Anselmo home and studio by appoint- ment or online at emerylipinski.com.
