SCAL 2026 Members’ Exhibition: Simple Pleasures

Join us in celebrating the creativity of our artistic community! The Santa Cruz Art League Members’ Exhibition is a showcase of art by current members, open to the public to enjoy. This year’s theme, Simple Pleasures, was selected through a vote by our community. Artists are invited to reflect on the small, meaningful moments that bring joy, whether found in food shared with friends, time in nature, beloved pets, creative rituals, or the everyday beauty that surrounds us. As a Santa Cruz based organization, we especially encourage work that connects to the simple pleasures found in our local landscape and community. Open to all mediums and styles, this exhibition honors the many ways our members experience and express joy. We look forward to showcasing the richness and diversity of our creative community. The Santa Cruz Art League has been able to maintain a space for artistic expression and growth since 1919, thanks to our extensive membership made up of artists from all walks of life. Through the Members’ Exhibition, we celebrate our present cohort and honor our past. We extend our heartfelt thanks to each and every one of our dedicated members whose support has been instrumental in keeping our organization alive. As we draw the curtains on 2025, we take great pleasure in showcasing the exceptional talents of our diverse group of artists. Embrace the beauty of artistic expression in all its forms, as we welcome a myriad of mediums that is truly representative of our artistic community.
