We Open Doors for Artists of ALL Abilities. 

Our Local Art Gallery is operated by a team of Artists with Autism and other Developmental Disabilities and their Mentors. We work together on community projects to uplift the underserved and create opportunity and representation for ALL types of people. 

What We Do

We have created a space unlike any other in our area!

Our beautiful Art Gallery in the heart of Downtown Oxnard, Plaza Park, showcases diverse local artists. We are the only public art gallery in Oxnard, and 100% of funds raised goes back to our NonProfit Organization's Mission to promote Inclusion through the Arts. Our community events celebrate local culture and educate through experiences and storytelling. You can experience a new art medium or artist through one of our Art Classes for ALL, or by visiting our Gallery and Gift Shop. Contact us to get involved in our next event, volunteer, or sponsor an event or class. We also rent our space for private meetings or parties, and host private Paint Night Parties at our place or yours!
