The Monterey Peninsula Art Foundation

The Monterey Peninsula Art Foundation was conceived in the late 1970s in Dick Crispo's living room. Founding members included Kay Cline, Ilene Tuttle, Rudolpho Nava, and of course Dick. We received our 501-c3 status in 1981. We will gladly accept donations.
The Monterey Peninsula Art Foundation (M.P.A.F.) was founded to bring artists together for fellowship,
the exchange of ideas, and to further art education of the artists and the public.
We hold workshops and lectures, have a scholarship fund, and maintain this website of our members' work.
We have an All Member Show each year and sponsor a limited membership gallery at 425 Cannery Row in Monterey.
We support public art work and cooperate with other groups in public activities.
The current President of M.P.A.F. is
Charlotte Hallam
and the Membership Chair is
Jan Penney.
Membership in M.P.A.F. is $20 a year and is open to anyone. If you are interested in membership, please contact us. By long tradition, M.P.A.F. does not jury an artist's work. If we are showing in a gallery that limits what it accepts we will state the limitations in the call for art.
We believe that artists must have an opportunity and a place to show their work. So enjoy visiting our members' work -- links to the artwork of selected M.P.A.F. members are listed in the left and right margins of this web page.
Note to members on the 2009 M.P.A.F. All Member "Lost in a Painting" Show:
Please bring your paintings in May 23 between 12 and 4.
If you cannot bring paintings in on your own, arrange to have someone else bring them.
There is a $10 per picture hanging fee, and your M.P.A.F. dues for 2009 must be paid.
Dues are $20 a year and can be paid at the same time.
Paintings must have wires on the back. Sculptures will be accepted.
All pieces must have a permanent label on the back (paintings) or bottom (sculptures)
with the artist's name, address, and phone number; the name and medium of the piece; and the price or value.
In addition to the permanent label, a post-it note for the front is required.
The reception will be Friday, May 29, from 7 to 9 pm.
