Membership

For 100 years, OAC has nurtured and promoted the visual arts in our community. Your membership helps sustain our ongoing commitment to bringing art programming to our region, and helps make OAC a truly special place.

Memberships help OAC, but they also have benefits that help you!

All membership levels include:

  • Discounts on classes, workshops, and gallery entry fees

  • Early access to class and workshop registration periods

  • Submission to members-only gallery exhibitions

  • Special invitations to members-only events

  • Tax deductible receipt

  • Ability to sell prints and cards in the OAC lobby

  • Discounts at Artists & Craftsman, BLICK, Columbia Art Supply, and West Coast Frames (please identify yourself as an OAC “student”)

  • Networking and volunteering opportunities with fellow artists and art lovers

Note: Charitable giving tax law requires that certain benefits resulting from your membership be assigned a fair market value, which must be deducted from the total contribution to calculate the tax-deductible portion of your gift.
