It is with a heavy heart we write this sad news – our faithful friend and founding Board member, Pat Carroll passed away peacefully in her sleep on her 81st Birthday on Sunday, June 21st.

“Pedro-Pat” was a passionate supporter of the arts and generously gave back to this community by volunteering with many organizations from Habitat for Humanity, the Grand Vision Foundation, the San Pedro Waterfront Arts District and most recently, the Central San Pedro Neighborhood Council.

She will be fondly remembered for her many contributions, spanning over ten years of guided FirstThursday ArtWalk Tours, her willingness to stay engaged with this community and her devotion to arts education. She was a role model for graceful aging and continuous learning.
