Supporting Your Palos Verdes Art Center — 1975-2025
Celebrating 50 Years of Bringing Art and Art Education
to our Peninsula and South Bay Communities!
Since its inception in 1975, The Circle of Palos Verdes Art Center has been the fundraising support group for Palos Verdes Art Center (PVAC). With much gratitude to our all of our community supporters, The Circle of Palos Verdes’ efforts have raised $2,000,000 to provide art experiences and art education through Palos Verdes Art Center. For 50 years, The Circle has hosted a wide range of events, including the ongoing Collected Treasures event as well as The Art of the Road Rally, Celebrate Extraordinary, Palos Verdes Homes Tour, Art for Fun(d)’s Sake, and more. Our upcoming events feature a celebratory 50th Anniversary Dinner Gala on October 25, 2025, PVAC Winter Art Show with Holiday Reception on December 5, 2025, and Collected Treasures on March 20-22, 2026.
