The Lamorinda Arts Council (Council) presents the work of local artists at the in-person and virtual exhibit at the Art Gallery at the Orinda Library from May 2 – 31. Meet the artists at a reception in their honor on Sat. May 7 from 3 to 5 p.m. where light refreshments will be served. All COVID-19 precautions observed for your health and safety.

The mission of the Council is to ignite and sustain artistic expression and appreciation for all ages throughout Lamorinda. If you are interested in visual, performing or literary arts, please join us in keeping the arts alive! We are an engaged group of volunteers and donors who develop and produce events, partner with professional organizations and artists, give financial support and awards, and advocate for a vibrant, local culture of visual, performing, and literary arts.

In addition to curating two galleries in Orinda with new artwork every month (Art Gallery at the Orinda Gallery & Art Gallery at Wilder), here is a sample of other programs we offer: Lamorinda Idol, High School Visual Arts Competition, Art Embraces Words, Artify Orinda, and Lamorinda Super Shorts. If you are interested in exhibiting artwork in one of our galleries please apply online HERE.
