The Napa Valley Art Association is a private, nonprofit arts organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for the Napa Valley by supporting arts and culture throughout the county. We provide funding, advocacy, marketing and exhibition opportunities for local artists. A percentage of all sales generated through the Napa Valley Art Association activities is dedicated to art education scholarships for the high schools of Napa Valley and Napa Valley College.
