The San Diego Fine Art Society is a nonprofit arts organization dedicated to nurturing the creation and appreciation of art in San Diego. We have a three-pronged strategy to accomplish this:

* a mentoring program that offers young artists practical business guidance, workshops and networking opportunities;

* community outreach that educates members on the rich, varied, and often hidden art of our region and the importance of collecting, and

* a corporate art consulting service to help community businesses of all kinds embrace and reflect the visual arts culture of San Diego.

We envision a San Diego with a sense of its own cultural identity, with collectors, curators and citizens who seek out art by San Diegan artists, and a business community that looks for ways to embrace and reflect the visual arts culture of the community that keeps it thriving.

GOALS:

* Support and strengthen the role of art in neighborhood preservation and revitalization by providing job and entrepreneurial training and mentoring opportunities in the arts;

* Increase art experiences and opportunities for all members of the community through regional partnerships with the business community;

* Enhance the role of fine art in improving the quality of life for residents and visitors;

* Expand the role of art in healing by encouraging art and art therapy in hospitals and clinics;

* Enhance the visibility and financial stability of San Diego fine artists through our efforts.
