If you happen to have an open afternoon one day and a desire for inspiration, then the newly remodeled Palos Verdes Art Center is the place for you! The Center, a non-profit community visual arts gallery and school, spent the last year under construction. Five million dollars and many invested hearts later, the Art Center was reopened this year on March 16th in their normal location at the intersection of Crestridge Road and Crenshaw Boulevard in Rancho Palos Verdes.
Since 1931, the mission of the Palos Verdes Art Center is to inspire individuals to celebrate, appreciate and create art. The Art Center's exhibition, education and outreach programs have provided affordable access to the visual arts through free art exhibitions, studio art classes, school-based art education, and awards and scholarships.
Entirely supported by private community donations, this year the Art Center will celebrate its 80th year in Palos Verdes. Current fundraising efforts are only $200,000 away from their goal of $5.5 million raised through their Anniversary campaign.
The Palos Verdes Art Center is open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and 1p.m. to 4 p.m. Saturdays. The new exhibit is presented by the California Art Club, titled "Then and Now: One Hundred Years of California Impressionism," and will be showing now until the end of September.
So the next time you drive home early, make sure to pick up some friends or your family and go see the new exhibit at the Palos Verdes Art Center.
