MISSION
The mission of the
Sanchez Art Center is to create community
through art.
The art center
provides exhibitions
by emerging and established California
artists;
education and outreach programs designed to make art accessible
to people of all ages and backgrounds; and affordable
studio space for up to 30 Bay Area artists.
The art center has three
exhibition spaces:
- Main Gallery - exhibitions
by established and emerging California artists
- West Wing Gallery
- Art Guild of Pacifica exhibitions
-
East Wing Gallery - community
and multicultural exhibitions by Bay Area
organizations and children
HISTORY
In 1996, a group
of artists, volunteers and local residents, in cooperation
with the City of Pacifica, leased an abandoned elementary
school building that they subsequently converted into
the Sanchez Art Center.
In 1998, with a neighborhood grant from the Peninsula
Community Foundation, a team of local artists, youth and
family members completed Pacifica's only large-scale mural,
containing images that celebrate community spirit and
commitment to diversity.
In 2000, the Mary Harris Arts Education Room
was established for art classes and summer art camps.
The Art Center
is home to the Art Guild of Pacifica, whose 500 members
volunteer for exhibitions, events, and gallery sitting,
as well as serving on the center's committees and board.
The Sanchez Art Center is a non-profit organization.
Funding comes from grants, donations, art classes, art sales, and art studio rentals. The Art Center relies
on the volunteer efforts of its studio artists, members of the Art Guild of
Pacifica, and the community.
