Carnegie Art Cornerstones Announces Our 2022 Board Challenge Grant!
The Carnegie Art Cornerstones has been pinpointing ways to advance the career growth of artists and expand appreciation for arts and culture in Oxnard and Southern California. For this work to continue we need your support!
Again this year, the Board is offering a Challenge Grant. We so believe in the importance of this work that for every dollar you donate, the Board will match that up to $2,250!
This will enable us to support artists in education and exhibition, and provide opportunities for community engagement with the arts through exhibits and events.
Having reshaped our mission following the museum closure and Covid. we focused on boosting the development of young artists in our area through our endowment gifts in 2020 to Oxnard College, Ventura College and California State University Channel Islands for art scholarships and campus exhibits. Our first recipients received scholarships this year! CAC support of the renovation of the McNish Gallery at Oxnard College continues with a construction delayed opening now projected for fall of 2023. The planned First Ever Student Art Contest and exhibit has been postponed until January 2024, and has expanded to include first year college students, in furtherance of our support of emerging artists.
