Old Hyde Park Art Center

You're here if you want to see what local painters, sculptors, and jewelry makers actually make—not what galleries think will sell. The space hosts rotating exhibitions, artist demos, and calls for entries to juried shows with real prizes. It's a 501(c)3 mission-driven operation, which means the work on the walls matters more than the margin.

Saturday or Sunday afternoon, 12:00–3:00 PM, when you can linger without feeling rushed and catch artists if they're around. Check their website first—exhibitions rotate and demos happen on specific dates (next ones listed for August–October 2026).

If you make art, submit to their calls for artists: the annual Bay Area juried show has over $2,000 in prizes, and they run themed shows (Fall Fantasy, Student Exhibit) year-round with low barriers to entry.
