We're on the homestretch of Art Kala 2022 - Kala's auction benefit. This is Kala's biggest fundraiser of the year and we'd love your support!

Every nook in Kala's auction exhibition is filled with treasures. We have work to collect by 100+ talented artists, wine, gift certificates for art supplies, restaurants, and more. There is something for everyone. Get in on the action for a good cause! You can browse and bid online here. Bidding closes Sunday, May 22nd at 5pm (PST).

For the final week of Kala's auction exhibition, Kala's gallery will be open May May 18-22, Wed - Sun, 12-5pm.

Thanks for supporting Kala as we celebrate our 48th year, upgrade facilities, and raise funds to increase access to art-making opportunities for all generations.
