The Chico Art Center is the largest arts organization in Butte County and has been around for almost 50 years. Boasting a gallery, classroom facilities, a large membership base, and its own vintage rail car, the art center has much to offer.

Look for representatives at the Taste of Chico, Chico World Music Festival, and Art in the Park. Be sure to check out the annual Open Studios Art Tour in the Fall; member artists throughout Butte County open their studios to the public for a two weekend art extravaganza.
