Sanchez Art Center's 50|50 Show Opening Fundraiser!

Featuring over 50 talented California artists and an astonishing +2,500 original artworks, this year will again be a destination for art lovers. Each artist was challenged to create 50 small works in 50 days over the summer— all in a 6” x 6” format. The result? The galleries are transformed into a vibrant mosaic of styles, themes, and mediums. From abstract to figurative, whimsical to thought-provoking, in encaustic wax to watercolor, oil and acrylic. Mixed media to ceramic, wood, glass, and metal. Photography, collage, printmaking and more, this is where creative boundaries are pushed, and surprises await throughout the Center. Mark your calendars! The only chance to see all +2,500 artworks in their entirety is during the Opening Benefit Fundraiser on Fri, Sept 5 and Sat, Sept 6. It’s an exciting immersive experience that celebrates both artistic process and community connection. So whether you’re a longtime attendee or a first-time visitor, come and see why the 50|50 Show is considered the most wonderful time of the year for art! Tickets are available now on Eventbrite.com — and they regularly sell out! No tickets will be available at the door, so be sure to grab yours now.
