Mi Casa es Tu Casa Application

Celebrating Community Diversity

Community groups and families are invited to build altars inside the PVAC Gallery for this year’s Mi Casa es Tu Casa art exhibit. The theme for this annual art display is inspired by Día de Los Muertos, a traditional holiday celebrated in Mexico, and is further enriched by a multitude of similar traditions from worldwide cultures.

Dreaming Big Application

Visions of the Future by Young Artists

Have you ever wished that other people could see through your eyes? Here is your opportunity.

When you create art and share your vision, people have the opportunity to see things the way you see them. When your art hangs in a public gallery, everybody who comes in to see it—your friends, family, and hundreds of people you don’t know and have never met—will get to see the world through your eyes. You never know, your vision may inspire others to dream big, too. Your art can change the world!
