Kick off your weekend with a bite-sized happy hour version of our renowned Studio Arts workshops.

Watercolor Techniques

Combining many styles and techniques of watercolor painting on quality paper will lead to your own fluid imagery. Many images and demonstrations will be used to inspire these paintings.

All levels of experience are encouraged to participate. OMA provides food, drinks, and supplies; all you have to do is get yourself out of work, grab your friends, and have fun!

FABULOUS FIBER is a dazzling celebration of textile artistry, where tradition meets innovation in a vibrant display of texture, color, and creativity. This immersive exhibition brings together contemporary works crafted with both time-honored and cutting-edge techniques, from quilting and tufting to felting, embroidery, weaving, beading, crochet, basketry, and beyond. Each piece breathes new life into fiber art, transforming familiar crafts into bold, modern expressions.

Join us Saturday, August 23, from 5:00–7:00pm for an evening of art and drinks as we celebrate the opening of our newest exhibitions The Space Between: Texture Studies by Denja Harris, FABULOUS FIBER, and Surf Art: Exploring Southern California's Coastal Culture. Discover and connect with fellow artists, dedicated curators, and a vibrant community as you explore the art and stories of Southern California artists in three new exhibitions at OMA.
