Calling All Artists: Showcase and sell work in the Clark Center Visual Arts Exhibit
We are now accepting applications from fine artists who are interested in displaying and selling their work!
Our lobby is filled with art from local artists year round! Mixed media such as oil, watercolor, pastels, pen and ink, sketching, etc. are encouraged, as well as sculptures and photography.
Although we do not charge artists to exhibit, we humbly ask that 20% of the proceeds from pieces that sell be invested back into our student scholarship and grant programs. These scholarships benefit graduating seniors who will be pursuing an education in the arts.
Art pieces are juried for content acceptability and 10 artists will be selected to display their work for two consecutive months.

The Central Coast Printmakers are a dedicated group located in California’s San Luis Obispo County. CCP was founded over 40 years ago by Barbara and Rosey Rosenthal. With over 30 diverse, active members, CCP’s mission is to maintain the tradition of making art prints and designing plates by hand. Our printmaking processes include etchings, engravings, linocuts, woodcuts, silkscreens, collagraphs and monoprints. Members participate in local demonstrations, open studio tours, education, exhibitions and community events.
Andrew Waldron (b. 1967, Phoenix, Arizona) is a Fine Art Photographer based on the Central Coast of California. Known for transforming ordinary landscapes into extraordinary visual narratives, Waldron’s work combines high-resolution digital photography with dramatic black-and-white compositions. Through his precise manipulation of light and shadow, his work features subtle gradations of tone that move the viewer's eye through the composition.
Waldron’s celebrated series, Timeless, is a series of images that focuses on the California Piers, it features a powerful reflection on the contrast between reality and human perception. In this series, Waldron separates his subjects from the surrounding landscape through sharp detail, while both motion blur and distance soften elements such as water, sky, and distant mountains.
Waldron’s work has been exhibited at Edna Contemporary Gallery in San Luis Obispo, California. His art continues to delve into the interplay of light, space, and the human experience, offering a unique lens through which to examine our relationship with time.
