The Palo Alto Art Center is a multi-purpose center open to the public for art activities for all ages. It is managed by the City of Palo Alto, California and supported by the non-profit Palo Alto Art Center Foundation (PAACF).[1] The Center is located adjacent to Rinconada Park and the Rinconada Public Library. The Palo Alto Art Center was originally named the Palo Alto Community Cultural Center when it was founded in 1971.[1] Arts EducationThe Art Center has art classes for both adults and children, workshops, summer camps, and drop-in programs that take place in the Center's studios and classrooms. Courses include painting, drawing, mixed-media, ceramics, and jewelry. School outreach programs include offering schools with Project Look field trips and the Cultural Kaleidoscope program that pairs students from the Palo Alto Unified School District and Ravenswood City School District for art activities.[2] Exhibitions & EventsVisitors can view free exhibitions with artwork in a wide range of media, and participate in free events. Events include Friday Night at the Art Center[3], Family Days, The Great Glass Pumpkin Patch, and the Clay and Glass Festival. The City of Palo Alto maintains a list of past exhibitions.[4] Some highlights are:
A Patrick Dougherty sculpture called Whiplash[9], a woven structure on the lawn, was rated one of the top 10 Instagram-worthy spots in Palo Alto.[10] Artists-in-Residence programs also provide opportunities for artists to engage with the public.[11] VolunteeringThe Art Center has an extensive volunteer program, with volunteers performing both regular and one-time tasks. Docents conduct free guided tours of the exhibitions. Non-Profit FoundationThe Palo Alto Art Center Foundation supports the Art Center, enabling its mission of arts engagement with the broad community, through fundraising and advocacy. Membership benefits include exclusive events and member previews.
