Who We Are

Sierra Art Trial is a 501c4 Non-Profit Arts Organization, Our mission is to support working artists and artisans by promoting their work, to foster the visual arts and art education in our area, and to benefit our communities by establishing a reputation for the region as an arts destination.

 

The organization presents an annual open studio tour in Eastern Madera and Mariposa Counties that draws thousands of visitors to the Sierra Foothills every year.   

 

Sierra Art Trails relies on funds raised by participating artists, advertisers, and generous public and private sponsors.  Our major sponsors in 2010 are the Yosemite Sierra Visitor's Bureau, Chukchansi Gold Casino and Resort, KJewel Radio, and Sierra Telephone.

Sierra Art Trails is made possible by a committee of volunteers responsible for managing, promoting, and growing the organization, planning exhibits, activities, and events, fundraising, and publishing the annual Sierra Art Trails catalog. 

 

SAT also raises monies for student sponsorships, scholarships, public art, and other art related projects.

Sierra Art Trails operates from Stellar Gallery in Oakhurst.  The gallery hosts the Sierra Art Trials Preview Exhibit, and also displays a selection of donated artworks that benefit the event.  In 2010 Stellar Gallery will be hosting the Sierra Art Trails special exhibit, "Water, Source of Life".

 

We are always looking for volunteers to help plan and manage our activities, exhibits, and events.  If you are interested in joining the planning committee, or helping out as a volunteer,  please contact us at 559-658-8844 or by email at admin@sierraarttrails.org
