Mission Statement:
“The purpose of Arts Visalia is to develop, foster,
and promote the arts as central to the quality of life in Visalia.”
Arts Visalia is a 501(C)(3) nonprofit community arts center located in downtown Visalia, California. In our three galleries we feature exhibitions of work from regional, national and international artists. Admission is free and open to the public four days a week. Throughout the year, Arts Visalia hosts a dynamic range of events including artist receptions, lectures and workshops, an annual juried exhibition, an annual Holiday Show & Sale, and other special events that nurture Visalia’s visual arts community.
Our education programs include ongoing classes for adults as well as after school and weekend classes for children. Our Summer Art Program grows each year, offering seven weeks of art camps for children five and up. Through generous support from private and public donors, our scholarship programs for kids provide opportunities for dozens of youth each year.
