The Art Branch is an active group of volunteer members who strive to promote these early tenets set forth in the Articles of Incorporation,”The purpose of the Art Center is to advance the interest, influence and usefulness of the Arts in the community, to engage in the promotion from an a vocational standpoint of fine and applied arts.” Which means to us joyfully creating,exhibiting,networking and providing hands on experiences in the Arts.
The galleries are a source of pride for the Art Center, displaying a high quality of local work from Ojai, Santa Barbara and Ventura County artists as well as artists from as far away as New York. Many artists who have since gained national recognition have had their start at the Art Center.
