Think outside the gallery.
Inviting the community into our galleries and studios is a big part of our mission – and so is taking our passion for art beyond our walls. We sponsor or support several programs to bring art to a wider audience in our community. We’re also happy to provide private or group tours.

Public Art

The Outdoor Sculpture program brings a rotating collection of outdoor sculpture and other installations to the streets of downtown San Rafael.
