THIS IS US

2027 Members Exhibition | East County Art Association

Celebrating the Artists Behind Our Creative Community

As we welcome 2027, the East County Art Association is proud to present This Is Us, a special exhibition dedicated to celebrating the talented artists who make our organization unique.

This exhibition is all about YOU: your creativity, your artistic style, your inspiration, and the story behind your work.

We want our community to discover the individuals behind the artwork, learn about their creative journeys, and appreciate the diversity of artistic expression within ECAA.

Each participating artist will have the opportunity to be highlighted through our website and a special marketing campaign, introducing our members and their creative talents to a broader audience as we begin another exciting year of art and community.
