Located in the Both Galleries
For over a century, the Pacific Art League has been a cornerstone of artistic community, creativity, and innovation in the Bay Area. Since our founding in 1921, PAL has championed artists of all disciplines and experience levels, offering a welcoming space for expression, learning, and connection.
Now celebrating our 104th Anniversary, we invite artists to join us in honoring this rich legacy through our annual exhibition. Presented salon style, this milestone show highlights the diverse voices and visions that make our community vibrant—from bold new perspectives to time-honored techniques. All media are welcome, and we encourage submissions that reflect both the history and future of art.
Be part of a century-strong tradition of creativity and help us celebrate the enduring power of the arts at PAL’s 104th Anniversary Exhibition.
