Fun in Alameda

Exhibiting artists are from all over the Bay Area. Every month they change all of the galleries. Volunteer opportunities include working with artists, learning the art of displaying art, developing marketing and sales skills, and organizing activities and events. Volunteers are also invited to develop an education program to share their life experience and skills with artists and other creative people.
