Thank you for visiting the Art Guild of Pacifica!

Our mission is to increase the awareness and appreciation of artists and their works. The West Gallery at Sanchez Art Center has been our proud home since 1996.

Founded in 1958 by Pacifica Postmistress Juanita Lombardi, the Art Guild of Pacifica has always championed arts education as well as promotion of the arts in the community. Today with a membership of artists and supporters AGP continues to grow and promote art with on-going un-juried exhibitions, artist gatherings, AGP Artist Facebook group, AGP Shop on the Shelf, and membership open to all artists in the greater SF Bay Area and San Mateo Peninsula.

During our Annual Art Guild of Pacifica Members Show, Art Guild of Pacifica Awards Exhibition and Winter Art Faire the Art Guild occupies all 3 galleries at Sanchez Art Center. As an all volunteer organization we depend on members to support our exhibitions and events through attendance, participation and volunteerism.

CALLS FOR ENTRY •  All members are welcome to exhibit at the art center in our non-juried shows.

GALLERY ATTENDANTS • We keep the galleries open to the community with volunteer Gallery Attendants, primarily AGP members. The Gallery Attendant signs up for a 2 hour shift and receives a voucher that is good for half of the artwork entry fee for AGP exhibitions, and it can be combined with another voucher for the full entry fee. Typically the sign up is at the time of receiving artwork.

ARTISTS’ GATHERING •This is an informal gathering to share information on a number of art related topics. This is a place to share our art with each other in a show-and-tell like manner, an outlet to talk about our many ideas with one another, or a sketch night. Gatherings take place at Sanchez Art Center, on a designated Wednesday, 7-9pm or virtually when health protocols don’t permit in person meeting. More information can be found on our Coming Events  bar visible on each page of this site, on the AGP Facebook page, or contact Artist Gathering coordinator Daniele Derenzi at danielesphotos@msn.com
