Carmel Art
Association Mission Statement:
The Association exists to provide its members with a permanent art gallery, to advance knowledge of, and interest in the arts, and to create a spirit of cooperation and fellowship among artists and the community.
A Proud Heritage:
The legendary Carmel Art Association was formed on August 8, 1927 by a small group of artists who gathered at “Gray Gables,” the modest home/studio of Josephine Culbertson and Ida Johnson at the corner of Seventh andLincoln in
Carmel-by-the-Sea. These nineteen “pioneers”—who grew up in the 19th century
and individually found their respective paths to Carmel from all corners of the
world—each desired a greater sense of community, a spirit of collaboration, and
a place to show their work. Before the meeting concluded, they had established
an association with a mission “to advance art and cooperation among artists,
secure a permanent exhibition space, and promote greater fellowship between
artists and the public.”
