Organization Summary
Our support and dedication to the arts in Yolo County has its foundation in projects reflecting the cultural make-up of the county as we work to connect artists, young people, students, art supporters, the community at large, and political and business stakeholders to our developing arts culture.
YoloArts promotes access to arts through our arts education programs in public schools around Yolo County, by operating two public art gallery, Gallery 625 and The Barn Gallery, sponsoring arts events and celebrations, working with local jurisdictions on community engagement and economic development through the arts, and providing professional development activities and opportunities for artists and the county-wide art community.
The Art & Ag Project remains a signature creative placemaking effort for us as it connects artists with Yolo County farms, and results in an arts showcase at our annual Art Farm Gala.
