Mission Statement

The Village Gallery of Arts promotes professional and emerging artists by offering high quality, affordable art education to children and adults, and provides an on-site gallery as well as other venue opportunities for our members to display and sell their work. OUR MISSION: To ignite the joy of learning, creating, and appreciating art in our community.

Description

We have been here a long time - over 60 years! The Village Gallery of Arts (VGA) was founded in 1963 by a group of 10 artists who shared the idea of having a working, teaching gallery - a place for exhibition and instruction. Today, we are home to over 150 Oregon artists. Several of our artists have been with the gallery for many years. We enjoy a diverse group of artists and artisans, who create fine works of art in virtually every medium.
The gallery has grown with the community and has occupied several locations in the Cedar Mill area. We have been in our current space next to the Cedar Mill Library since 2001, and we believe this space will serve our needs for a long time to come.
We offer a good variety of classes and workshops for all ages and abilities which change according to the community's interest and needs. The gallery is a non-profit 501c3 organization, and receives no taxpayer money. The gallery is supported through fees for classes, workshops, membership dues, sales from the gallery, and tax-deductible donations.
