The mission of the PMCA is to present the breadth of California art and design through exhibitions that explore the cultural dynamics and influences that are unique to California.

Funds will be used to support These Carnations Defy Language, a collaboration between Alexandra Grant and Steve Roden.  The exhibition gives aesthetic form to the spoken and written word as both artists reference language and text as part of the composition in their paintings and drawings.  The show will run from June through November 2015
