Hayward Area Forum of the Arts dba Sun Gallery

Organization Description

The Sun Gallery’s (SUN) mission is to provide visual and performing art exhibitions and educational programs that reflect the diversity of Hayward and the surrounding areas. SUN fulfills its mission by offering a range of free exhibits and low-cost ancillary education programs that bring art to the community and inviting the public into the gallery through interesting and affordable programs. Art education activities for adults and children (including school field trips and a summer art camp) combine gallery exposure with hands-on experiences in the studio, lectures, workshops, and readings related to the exhibit themes. An important outreach is SUN’s free Saturday Art for Families program which entails inviting families into the SUN studio twice a month to create art, often from re-used or re-purposed materials.
