This small-town arts and event center is a gem, set in beautiful west Sonoma County. The array of shows and wide taste in music is remarkable. The art gallery is charming. Set on the north edge of the village of Occidental. We’re so lucky to have it. Only 35 minutes drive west of Santa Rosa.

O really enjoy all my interactions at Occidental Art Center. The Tuesday morning Life Drawing class is great! The teacher and all the students are supportive and encouraging .I so love the people and process involved in entering their juried shows. All you do is get an appointment on line and take your painting into the gallery at that time. It is quite an enjoyable experience.Finally, I want to say how pleasant people at the center are. Everyone just enjoys making and sharing art!

Excellent medium-sized venue, perfect to listen to the lively talented blue-grass band, Three Acre Holler. Acoustics were good. The seating as surrounded by redwoods. The music was good. All in all, it made for an excellent afternoon.

This place is awesome, last dance I saw just two Gen Z kids. they were having a blast enamored with each other, but what made it possible was the music the band Rocked it! There must be a way to bring in more millenials as well as GenZ. I was thinking a gallery show targeting Millennials (ages 23 to 38 ) and one targeting Gen Z (ages eight to 23). Simply called "Milenial Art Show" and "GenZ Art Show & Dance Party", (dance open to all generations of course).

This is a great venue for music and dancing. There is plenty of outdoor space to catch some fresh air too. Restrooms were clean and not crowded. Parking on sight and on the street is easy and free.
