New! Petro Gift Cards

Petroglyph is happy to announce new Petro Gift Cards. These new cards can be 'filled' up with any amount you'd like, and they can be refilled indefinitely. While they make great gifts for that creative friend, they are also nice for kids: Set a budget for your child, fill the card up to that limit, and let them charge their Petro visits on their own "credit card." Kids love it and it helps teach them something about handling finances.

We'll also offer a range of Gift Card specials throughout the year, which we'll post here when they are coming up. So treat yourself or give the gift of Petroglyph: to your co-workers, your staff, your boyfriend (a nice hint) or kids. Available now at all Petroglyph locations!

Celebrating the Women's National Cycling Team!

Petroglyph Santa Cruz was honored to participate in a fundraiser for the women's national cycling team last Monday evening at Gabriella Cafe. We had team mates sign (and otherwise creatively augment) a large platter which will be auctioned off later this season. Guests included winner of the 2008 Tour of California Women's Criterium, Brooke Miller along with members of the USA Cycling Women's National Team Katheryn Curi, Kat Carroll, Alison Starnes, Janel Holcomb, Amy Dombroski and Amber Rais after they concluded the Sausalito-to-Santa Cruz leg of the Amgen Tour of California.

Alien Petroglyph in Santa Cruz

The team in the Santa Cruz studio has been decorating the place with really cool paper cuttings. I noticed this one figure on the Kid's Cave that struck me as what a space alien petroglyph would look like. The paper cutting style gives me lots of Halloweeny ideas of things to paint...

New Pieces!

In the slow days of Fall we decided to get a wide assortment of new and unusual pieces. Come see for yourself. Here, for instance, are the large and small versions of the Handthrown Italian Ewer in Santa Cruz.
