The OCFA Showcase Gallery is the premier exhibit space
for OCFA members to display and sell their work.
The OCFA Showcase gallery is operated by the Orange County Fine Arts Association, a 501c3 non-profit organization. All members of OCFA have the opportunity to show and sell their work in the gallery. Members who have been ‘juried in’ are invited to hang recent examples of their work in gallery shows. Members are encouraged to participate in as many shows as possible but are not required to have art in every show.
Showcase Gallery is a volunteer-run member co-op gallery, meaning every member is required to participate at some level in the everyday running of the gallery. These duties include but are not limited to: Sitting the desk during gallery hours; participating in gallery committees; assisting with set-up and clean-up for events; hanging shows; and general maintenance.
Orange County Fine Arts Association
Founded in 1964, Orange County Fine Arts (OCFA) is a non-profit 501 c3 organization dedicated to cultivating public interest in the arts through art education, exhibitions, and scholarships for aspiring artists. OCFA operates two galleries in Orange County, the OCFA Showcase Gallery in Santa Ana and the Artist Eye Gallery in Laguna Beach.
The organization provides opportunities for emerging and accomplished artists to showcase their work while enriching the community with a variety of programs. Artists looking to connect with other artists and art enthusiasts can find many opportunities within OCFA.
OCFA Scholarship Fund
Art education is supported through scholarships and donations, special student shows, and community exhibits. OCFA encourages and supports art education for youth and adults by awarding scholarships to college students and contributing to high school art programs that teach art as a valued form of self-expression.
A portion of all gallery proceeds are allocated to the OCFA Scholarship Fund, supporting our commitment to education in the fine arts.
