Summer Recap

Summer 2026 was one to remember! It was such a joy to meet so many amazing souls in my gallery, at my Sawdust Art Festival booth, and at my events.

If you’re new to the email list, check out my blog to see all our events from this summer, like our Jazz concert and art exhibition with Thisbe Vos.

A definite highlight was the closeout Blacklight Party featuring MLance designs fashion show, Cody Nicely glass, Star Shields airbrush art, John Lucero 3d Blacklight art, and a DJ set by Scott Welch.

Simple Laguna Pop-Up

When: Sunday, November 15, 11-5pm
Where: Simple Laguna Beach, 460 S Coast Hwy

Why It Matters?

This event is special to me because my dad, Roark Gourley, owned and operated the historic Sherwood Gallery out of this exact location.

The James Dilley Bookstore was donated to the Canyon Club. Designer chain stores were after the location, but a young artist with a dream had a different idea.

He appealed to the Canyon Club to help him kickstart Sherwood Gallery—an iconic monument of Laguna Beach art culture featuring revolutionary soft sculpture, music, and art displays that would shape the art world.

The Canyon Club secured him the lease and wrote him grants to renovate the retail space into something legendary.

Years later, Simple Laguna now occupies the historical landmark location, and they have generously offered to host an exclusive Anya Elise Pop-Up!

Join me on Sunday 11/15 for new original pieces, permanent jewelry, bubbles, and Laguna history. Can’t wait to see you there!
