25 years ago, a group of artists and supporters got together to form an arts organization unlike any other in Ventura County.

Today, SCIART is a thriving non profit. A place for artists and the public to practice, exhibit, perform, and appreciate art in all its forms.

Let’s gather ‘round to honor SCIART’s visionaries and raise funds for the next 25 years of SCIart's exhibitions, concerts, and art education.
