The San Joaquin Valley is abundant in creative and artistic individuals expressing themselves through various forms of art. These artists are experts in their field and masters of their craft, making them an asset and treasure to our community. They have inspired what is now Art Expressions of San Joaquin. Each artist is as unique and diverse as the individuals that comprise the San Joaquin Valley and its communities. Our mission and primary objective is to promote and showcase the works of these dedicated and talented artists with the rest of the San Joaquin Valley. Artwork will be displayed in the County Administration Building and will also serve as the venue to hold community events. The purpose of this co-operative will reflect the rich cultural fabric of our community.
Art Expressions of San Joaquin was born from the Tidewater Gallery in downtown Stockton. Executive Director, Arturo Vera's idea was to continue supporting local artists even though we no longer had a store front downtown. Arturo's strong fight with Parkinson's Disease makes this a bigger challenge as we move from location to location. We thank the County, the Hilton, and the Airport for supplying us with 3 permanent places to hang art, but we are still in search of a place to call our own, to "sell" art.
We appreciate any support you might be able to provide, such as donations,
sponsoring an event, buying art, board members, or attending events.
Artist's are welcome to submit their artwork via email to verastudio@att.net
for review. A yearly membership fee is required and sales are subject to a commission depending on locations.
