THE PACIFIC GROVE ART CENTER IS SEEKING DONATIONS FOR THE
TINY TREASURES 2023 MINIATURES SHOW THROUGH JUNE 23, 2023
Pacific Grove, CA. (April 2023) ATTENTION ALL ARTISTS! SUBMIT YOUR MINIATURE ART WORKS, PLEASE! Will you help support the nonprofit Pacific Grove Art Center (PGAC) by donating a beautiful miniature work of art to the 2021 Tiny Treasures show? They are accepting donations through June 23, 2023. The office is located at 568 Lighthouse, P.G. and is staffed to receive donations Wednesday through Saturday from 12-5pm and Sunday from 12-4pm.
They are limiting the number of donated pieces to a maximum of 3 pieces. Donated art must be original work (no reproductions) and any medium is accepted. Each piece must be no larger than 8”x 10” inches, including frame, and not exceed 7 inches in depth. Each piece must be ready to hang on the wall, with hooks or wires already attached.
Tiny Treasures is one of the nonprofit Art Center’s most playful and lively annual fundraisers and generates income to help PGAC continue to serve the community. Each miniature will be displayed with a “voting box” where patrons will deposit their purchased raffle tickets. At the close of the show on August 25, 2023, one winning ticket will be drawn for each piece of art.
About the Pacific Grove Art Center

It features a variety of art forms including Painting, Photography, Sculpture, Encaustic, Fabric Arts, Mixed Media and more.

The Pacific Grove Art Center also features seventeen Professional Artist Studios, Art and Movement classes for adults, After School, Weekend and Summer art classes for kids 8 – 17, creative opportunities for teens, and music and cultural events are held throughout the year. PGAC is also the home of the Peninsula Ballet Center. The beautiful historic galleries are available to rent for a special occasion.
Since 1969, Pacific Grove Art Center has been a community-based nonprofit seeking to enhance art appreciation and encourage the creation of art. With the desire to have art available to everyone, PGAC has held low-cost classes, free exhibits, and offered reduced rent for artist’s studios for over 50 years. Both emerging and established artists are professionally shown in their historic galleries, and large group shows can provide the first step into the art world for many. Through generous donations, grants, and hundreds of volunteer hours, the Pacific Grove Art Center continues its mission today.
All donations are deeply appreciated, especially during these challenging times. Become a member and receive the informative newsletter keeping you in the loop of all the community events, exhibit openings and cultural offerings they have to share.
