Art of Community

ART OF COMMUNITY @ MARE ISLAND ART STUDIOS


August 10 – September 1, 2024

Mare Island Art Studios and Artiszen* are joining to celebrate the Art of Community, featuring guests from Artiszen’s past shows, along with some exciting new artists, AND a sneak peak at Erin Bakke’s beautiful upcoming book!

*When Artiszen Cultural Arts Center opened its doors in the heart of downtown Vallejo in 2013, it soon became a space where the community could enjoy art, theater, music, dance, self expression, new friendships and more. During its heyday (the gallery closed in 2018), Artiszen embraced and celebrated the Art of Community, and this show at MIAS will be reminiscent of that special time.

Volunteer Opportunities:

Want to be more involved in the month-long festivities?? We would love to hang out with you throughout the show. We could really use volunteers to do “Gallery Hours” which just entails hosting the art exhibit by greeting guests, answering questions about Artiszen/MIAS/Art/Artists, and help facilitate sales if anyone wants to buy art (more info will be provided) There are 2 shifts per day available. There is also a need for Volunteers for Refreshment Coordinator- shift 1- set up, organize, and replenish catered food and drinks: shift 2- organize, replenish and breakdown catered food and drinks at end of the day.
