California Arts Day Friday, October 1, 2010

The Atrium Gallery
is managed by the members of the VCAC Visual Arts Committee, comprised of accomplished
artists, arts professionals, and arts advocates from across Ventura County. Jurors and Judges are selected based
on the exhibit subject matter. The goal of the committee is to highlight and promote the breadth and diversity of the
visual arts for the enrichment of the community. Approximately 3000 citizens and 1200 employees pass through the
gallery daily. It covers three floors and some 400 linear feet of exhibit walls and also has limited room for small and
large three-dimensional work. For more information contact the Ventura County Arts Council at (805) 658-2213,
