Orange County Fine Arts (OCFA) is a local non-profit 501 c3 organization dedicated to cultivating public interest in the arts through art education, exhibitions and scholarships for aspiring artists. Founded as the Costa Mesa Art League in 1964, we currently boast a membership of 180+ well-respected artists, art enthusiasts, collectors, students, philanthropists. OCFA welcomes art lovers and artists of all levels and experience who are passionate about the arts.
The organization provides opportunities for emerging and accomplished artists to showcase their work while enriching the community with a variety of artistic modalities. Artists looking to connect with other artist and art enthusiasts can find many opportunities within OCFA.
OCFA Scholarship Fund
Art education is supported through scholarships and donations, special student shows and community exhibits. OCFA encourages and supports art education for youth and adults by awarding scholarships to college students and contributing to high school art programs that teach art as a valued form of self expression.
A portion of all gallery proceeds are allocated to the OCFA Scholarship Fund, supporting our commitment to education in the fine arts.
