(PR) Wentworth Gallery, the world's leading fine art retailer, announced that rock and roll Hall of Fame member Grace Slick will bring her latest art exhibit to Orange County, making special appearances in Newport Beach and Laguna Beach on Saturday, March 15. I have included all the details below. I thought you might be particularly interested in talking with her about one of her newest pieces called Monterey.

The pinnacle event in Rock and Roll history took place in 1967 at the Monterey pop festival. This was the first time that Jimi Hendrix played in the US. The lineup of bands has never been duplicated. The Who, Janis Joplin, Grateful Dead and the Jefferson Airplane were a few of the bands to converge at this magical event in the summer of 1967 in the town of Monterey California. They were joined by the Mamas and the Papas, Otis Redding Neil Young and many other fellow musicians that came to witness this monumental concert.

Everyone agrees that Monterey was the best festival that ever happened. It was in a time when there was no mega corporate sponsorship or commercialism, just great vibes and fantastic music.

"When Jimi took the stage and began to wail everyone's jaw dropped, this was the man and his guitar we had heard so much about in reports from his concerts in England. We all knew that we were in the presence of true greatness. The crowd included almost everyone from the SF and LA music scene. It was an unbelievably cosmic event," says Grace Slick of the festival.

Now, on the 40th anniversary of the Monterey pop festival, Grace has created a piece that reflects the day and the people that were there. This magnificent work has been done in a very limited edition of 167 for collectors that want to have a piece of rock history.

Monterey has quickly become Grace's hottest edition to date and will only be available at a few more exhibits.

During the exhibit she will be signing dedications and doing photos with the collectors lucky enough to acquire one of these fantastic limited editions.

Both events are free and open to the public. For more information, please visit
