Programs
Since our founding, the California Art Club has embraced the untraditional in our pursuit to promote the merits of contemporary-traditional art. As a result, we offer an exceptional range of programs for artists and art enthusiasts of all ages – designed to inspire and enlighten while fostering a sense of community as we explore not only the rich heritage of classical art forms, but also the evolving influences that are encouraging today’s artists to raise the bar with their artwork.
