ART BRINGS US TOGETHER
So, here’s your chance to get involved!
Community Canvas started out like most cool projects, as just a simple idea.
What if we inspired each other to do more of what we love? Make art.
We’re taking that idea a step further and sharing it with our community. Oakview Coffee sits right in the heart of Oakhurst VIllage and is the perfect place to showcase local works of art. Don’t worry. You don’t have to be a professional. Do you like making stuff that hangs on walls? Great. Let’s do this.
Community Canvas is excited about creating art for your enjoyment and we hope you'll also become inspired and get involved. Every artist that becomes a part of Community Canvas offers a new perspective. And it’s such a great feeling to see your artwork displayed. We have so many talented members in our community. We’d love for you to join us on this new adventure. If you’re an artist, an art buyer, or just a simple art enthusiast, please contact us for ways to get involved!
For now, we're glad you're here.
Check out some of the most recent works of art below.
You can see them in person at Oakview Coffee!
Are you an artist?
Yes, well, kind of. I dabble. I used to be. I haven’t created in years.
Maybe it’s been a very long time since you picked up a brush, a piece of charcoal, or your camera. We know you have it in you - the need to create. The purpose for starting this group is to awaken, revive that creative spirit that seemed to disappear once we became busy adults! Don’t be too busy to make art. Challenge yourself to create again. Make the time for it. You deserve it. You know you need it. And we need to see it. That’s right, time to dust of those art supplies!
Maybe you create all the time, but just for you, just for fun. Why not show us what you’ve got? Why not be a part of a super cool group? Let’s celebrate your vision. Take advantage of an amazing space to hang up some of your work- put it out there for the world to see. Well, maybe not the world… your friends will want to come have a look, right?
