PCC’s Visual Arts and Media Studies Division is one Southern California’s leading arts education institutions. The mission of the Galleries at PCC is to present high-caliber exhibitions of Southern California’s contemporary visual artists and to provide an educational resource and opportunity for PCC students and the surrounding community to view and discuss challenging works, interact with artists and other art professionals, and have the art exhibited to professional standards. Since 1987, PCC’s Artist-in-Residence Program has brought diverse, exciting and engaging professional artists and their work to the community.

Funding will support PCC’s Student Scholarship Program for fine arts students and will also support Artist-in-Residence, Elliott Hundley and an exhibition of work by Digital Artist-in-Residence Natalie Bookchin.
