Welcome!
The mission of Lamorinda Arts Council is to ignite and sustain artistic expression and appreciation for all ages throughout the tri-city area of Lafayette, Moraga, and Orinda, California.
We are an engaged group of volunteers and donors who advocate for a vibrant, local culture of visual, performing, and literary arts. We do this by developing and producing community events, partnering with professional organizations and artists, and giving financial support and awards.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
January & February 2025 in our Art Galleries...
The Art Gallery at Orinda Library | February 2025 | "Beautiful World"
Lamorinda Arts Council presents "Beautiful World" showcasing the unique perspectives of five Muslim women artists from the Bay Area: Arshia Saifuddin, Bushra Gill, Hedaya Hasan, Latifat Titilayo Apatira, and Mubarra Ahmadyar. Through diverse art forms, they explore themes of faith, identity, and nature, finding the extraordinary in everyday life. Inspired by their spirituality, they create thought-provoking works that challenge our perceptions and reveal a world both seen and unseen.
The exhibition reminds us of the interconnectedness of all things and invites us to rediscover wonder and appreciate the beauty that surrounds us. On view February 3 - 28 in the Art Gallery at the Orinda Library.
Saturday, February 8th, 2:30 - 4:30 pm, Library Gallery
Meet the artists at a reception in their honor on Saturday, February 8 from 2:30 to 4:30 pm where light refreshments will be served on the outdoor terrace adjacent to the Gallery. Don't miss the Botanical Nature Print Demonstration by Latifat Titilayo Apatira at 3:30 pm which includes a giveaway of scented Rose Geranium leaf (Pelargonium graveolens).
