“A Life in Oils,” an exhibit of original fine artworks by artist Michael Joseph, is scheduled Sept. 20 through Oct. 9 at Zyt Gallery in Los Altos.

A reception with the artist will be held 6-9 p.m. at the Sept. 20 opening. Designed as a celebration of West Coast living, the subject of much of the artist’s work, the evening will include live music by Bay Area blues favorites, hors d’oeuvres and a special commemorative beer brewed exclusively for the occasion in partnership with Fermentation Frenzy of Los Altos.

Zyt Gallery is located at 923 N. San Antonio Road. For more information, call 948-6770.
