ABOUT US:
The College of the Sequoias is a Community College with its main campus located in the town of Visalia with 142,000 residents, located in the heart of California’s San Joaquin Valley. The COS Art Gallery now has two exhibition spaces, one in the art department building (one-month exhibitions) and one in our library (four-month exhibitions).
Our gallery schedules exhibitions in a two-year cycle, ranging in solo and group exhibitions, as well as an annual student show each spring. As a non-profit gallery, it is supervised by faculty/staff and trained student docents. The gallery provides insurance coverage for artwork while on our campus, publicity and a reception for the artist. However our budget does not allow for shipping expenses of artwork or storage of works between exhibitions. We have limited funds available to offer artists a modest stipend to travel to our campus to attend the reception and/or conduct an artist talk and/or demonstrations during their time at our campus or via Zoom. While the gallery is primarily educational in focus, we are happy to make sales for the artist, with 20% from the sale to be donated to the COS Art Gallery.
Open and free to the public, COS Art Gallery seeks to inspire and heighten community awareness and appreciation for the arts and plays a critical role in the mission of the college.
