About the MAA
Founded in 1968 as a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, the Martinez Arts Association (MAA) leads many community events throughout the year. Our goal is to encourage art culture and education for our youth and the community. We coordinate and sponsor art-related events such as, ‘SWAN Day’ (Support Women Artists Now) in March, ‘Art in the Park’ in August, and Dia de los Muertos.
The proceeds from these events along with generous sponsorships from local businesses and membership dues help the MAA provide scholarships to local graduating seniors in the visual arts. Also, in response to budgetary cutbacks to our public schools, the MAA offers grants to teachers for purchasing art supplies for their students.
The association’s greatest annual fundraiser, ‘Art in the Park with Live Music’, is held the third Sunday in August.
Monthly board meetings are the first Monday of every month at Studio 55 at 6:30pm. Members are invited to join us at the meetings. 55 Howe Rd, Martinez, CA 94553. Due to Labor Day, the September 2025 meeting will be held on 9/8. Please RSVP if you'd like to attend a future meeting. We welcome more engagement from the community!
