ART. HERITAGE. HEALING🇺🇸

Peter J. Carolan’s legacy on Catalina Island was built around more than art. It was about service, brotherhood, horses, heritage, and giving back.

This never before seen extraordinary original “HAPPY TRAILS” canvas brings those worlds together—and now, Pete’s art continues to serve a greater purpose. This 5’x4’ stretched canvas will be on display at the 67th Annual Catalina Island Festival of Art all weekend!

All proceeds support the Patriot SEAL Heritage Foundation’s three-day equine therapeutic retreats, providing Navy SEALS veterans facing PTSD, TBI, and related conditions an opportunity to reconnect, reset, and heal.

This weekend, we are proud to carry Pete’s legacy forward at the 67th Annual Catalina Festival of Art in the first-ever Legacy Artist category.

The art tells the story.
The proceeds carry the mission forward. 🇺🇸
