They have an amazing mashup of classic works of art going on right now. it is well worth the visit to see local artists interpretation of famous works of art. A real ballerina opposed to look like Degas statue of a ballerina. Van Goghs scenes are overlaid with blue Van Gogh paintings on saw blades. Girl with pearl earring meets Frida Kahlo. Pretty amazing works of local art!

This is a great place to see local art. The Center promotes art in the community and works very hard to produce high quality shows. The staff is great

Chico Art Center does a wonderful community event each Autumn(usually in October), Open Studio Art Tour, to allow artists in our town to show off their works, get Chiconians out of the house enjoying the season and their fellow artistic neighbors, and giving us a new perspectives about life! I highly recommend checking it out, and, if youre inclined, join in!

My estimate of Chico Art Center plummeted when I realized the artists for the recent Puzzle Show were not only charged $20 for each entry, but given NONE of the proceeds from the sale of their works. The contract the artists signed was very vague as to who would get the money. Surprise! It all went to the Chico Art Center and nothing went to the artists for their talent, time and materials. Very shoddy deal. In the future I will frequent other local art venues where the artists are rewarded for their talent , not the dealers. Shame on you.

Different art shows monthly. Need to check schedule to see what is showing at the time.It is a great way to see local art. If you have a desire to support Chico and the arts donate while you view what ever show they are featuring. My favorite was buried show for high school.

Best gallery in town, with constantly changing shows and a wonderful gift shop. Also, the Art Center, supported by YOU, has classes every quarter. The coffee shop, Great Northern, located next to the Art Center is owned and operated by the Art Center for the support of the Art Center. Its YOUR Art Center, please support it!

A small space that promotes local artists. I went in December when the art space was turned into a vendor/craft fair, so there were a variety of artists and craftors wares displayed for purchase in addition to what was for purchase in the gift shop area (think paintings, photographs, candles, earrings, necklaces, and the like). Ill have to come back after the holidays to check out the space with a typical showing.
