Providing Art Education and Sponsorship to
Southern California
The Art-A-Fair Foundation is a non-profit organization working in conjunction with the Art-A-Fair Festival in Laguna Beach California with a mission to promote the growth of art and and artists. With the hard work of our members and the generous support of the community and corporate sponsors, the Art-A-Fair Foundation provides ongoing art education and art sponsorship in Southern California. We provide art supplies for school art classes hard hit by cuts to their budgets. We also provide an art scholarship to two high school seniors who are planning a career in the arts. This unique scholarship allows these students to exhibit and sell side by side with seasoned art professionals at the Art-A-Fair Festival. This allows them to learn valuable skills needed to be a professional, working artist such as presentation, sales, and marketing.
