Something New-Visual Art Network to Support County Artists

For 34 years, each October artists across Santa Cruz County have opened their studios to the public.  Above all,the Arts Council Santa Cruz County sponsered  these Open Studios Art Tours. As a result of COVID, the methods changed.  Nonetheless,their support has not faltered.  The county created the Visual Arts Network, an online space for artists to display their art. In addition,the Network showcases the work of the many creatives that call Santa Cruz County their home.

How The Visual Art Network Supports Artists

First of all,the Visual Arts Network of Santa Cruz County is a  directory of over 300 artists. For example, you’ll find a wide variety of creators from painters,  sculptors, woodworkers and much more. Furthermore,each artist has their own page. In order for the public to  learn about their process and their creations. In addition, one can connect with them directly. That is to say that one may search by name, location or medium, explore all the artists, or meet featured artists.
