THE OLD MILL FOUNDATION

The California Art Club, established in 1909, is the western United States’ largest professional art organization with over 2000 members.

In 1999, the California Art Club Gallery was established in El Molino Viejo's converted Granary Room. The CAC maintains an on-going exhibit of excellent work for sale by acclaimed artists. The Old Mill Foundation is grateful to receive a portion of the proceeds from sales of these beautiful paintings.

The current exhibition is "Golden Hour Glow.” Golden Hour Glow showcases the beautiful golden light that occurs during the last hour before sunset, and the first hour after sunrise. This exhibition explores the warm light that imbues a soft natural glow on everything that it touches.

The California Art Club pays tribute to its founding members and the California Impressionist movement they inspired. The organization's early artists influenced the first purely Californian art movement, as they painted scenic vistas of the Golden State's natural beauty. Today's artists are employing the same classical techniques, as they create works that not only continue to showcase awe-inspiring landscapes, but also present thought-provoking images from daily life. 

The California Art Club Gallery is open to the public from 11am-2pm, Tuesday through Sunday.
