You play an essential role in our mission to create a collaborative environment where San Diego artists and the arts can prosper. As a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization, the Escondido Arts Partnership relies on the generous support and contributions from of our donors, volunteers, and patrons to make extraordinary works of art, exhibitions, and workshops available and accessible to our local community of all ages and backgrounds at absolutely no cost. Art is universal and essential on so many levels, but opportunities to access the arts are not always available to everyone. The Escondido Arts Partnership wants to provide more opportunities, and with your help we can. Together we can fulfill our mission of making visual and performing arts accessible to the community, virtually and beyond. Your generous support will help create opportunities for ALL local artists to show their artworks in a museum setting. Together we can create various artistic programs, free workshops and events featuring fashion, film, poetry and more. With your generosity and participation over the last 25 years we have funded hundreds of programs and themed art exhibitions that are free to the public. Thank you for being an important part of the arts programs and for contributing to further the EAP’s purpose. Your commitment has made this happen!
