The Carmel Art Association is composed of local artists who are selected by their peers. Founded in 1927, it is the second oldest operating non-profit artist cooperative in the United States (the oldest is in Rockport, Massachusetts).
The Association exists to provide its members with a permanent art gallery, to advance knowledge of, and interest in the arts, and to create a spirit of cooperation and fellowship among artists and the community.
Since 1927, this historic Carmel gallery has been a showcase for the works of some of California’s most renowned artists. Continuing that proud tradition today, the CAA features paintings and sculpture by over 120 of the area’s most noted professional artists living on the Central Coast.
Periodically, the current members honor one or more of the renowned artist members of the past with a special exhibit and catalogue of their work.
