This local art center is a community gem, frequently hosting diverse exhibits and events. Reviewers often highlight the quality of their exhibitions, like the Wayne Thiebaud show, and the engaging pottery classes. Be sure to check out their gift shop for unique items from local artists.
I love this charming local art center and have enjoyed many exhibits here over the years. Today we visited the Wayne Thiebaud exhibition, which was absolutely fabulous. I’ve seen a number of his works before at the Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento, but several of the pieces on display today were new to me—such a treat to experience different works up close.
The gift shop is small yet thoughtfully curated, featuring items inspired by the current exhibit along with creations by talented local artisans. Admission is very reasonable, and students receive discounted entry at just $10. Donations are also warmly welcomed and help support this wonderful community art space.

This is a great resource for our community, hosting a wide variety of events. The atmosphere is warm and friendly and their sound system is great for live music. Depending on the event it may be mostly seating or dance space. It's got ample free parking and it's in Ives Park, another wonderful Sebastopol asset.
