Sept 4th is the last show of our 3rd amazing season at ACB...just keeps getting bigger and better ...we will still be showing monthly with new work opening each month at The Crown Room on 4th and Davis ...great events happening there daily check them out
Artists for the Community is a growing local group of independent artists and artist groups, coming together collectively under the title "Artists For The Community", who are concerned about our communities and the world we live in. We've teamed up with the Pearl District's Albina Community Bank (Social Impact Branch) again to throw a celebration of art on First Thursdays Spring to Fall.We are Artists ....joining together to do what we can do ....to give back to the community and society as a whole ....with what WE do best …making/creating art.….and hopefully creating a little extra hope .....with a whole bunch of love.
Our show, better described as celebrations are about doing something "creative" with the 5 senses sight sound touch taste smell and sharing it with anyone interested in having their senses tickled, and doing something for the community we live in....we give so that we may receive.
We hope you will join us in our 3rd season ...April through October...celebrating art and community.... If you are an Artist in any genre and would like to join us...more info below.

MORE About our show...
At our events each artists is asked ( not mandatory) to "bring" a charity or
community based awareness/social need with them and they are encouraged to
donate part of their shows proceeds to their charities of choice. April through
October, every year on First Thursday
we take over the Albina Community Bank garage on
10th and Glisan in the Pearl district downtown and basically
...have a huge party.Many artists, including myself (Mo) create on site during the show,
We have an art area set up to share with you and paint/create with the kids (and grownups bonding with their inner child)
while displaying/sharing and selling our work
We even have a masseuse....!!!
