THE LODI COMMUNITY ART CENTER

The Lodi Art Center was created over 65 years ago when a group of artisans gathered to share their interest in the arts. In 1960, the Art Centered incorporated as a non-profit educational organization "to encourage an interest in, and study of, the arts". Lodi is a historic city in Califorina's wine country. Lodi is 90 miles northwest of San Francisco and is near to many of the best knowns names in wineries on the central California coast.

The "Little Gallery" is dedicated to art from students in the local high schools. A competitive scholarship is given to a local high school student showing an interest in expanding her or his talents.
