About the Coastal Arts League

Supporting the arts and artists since 1979 the Coastal Arts League (CAL) is a non-profit corporation located on the San Mateo coast of northern California. The CAL is operated by volunteers committed to the arts. Among CAL’s projects is a museum, which provides a venue for artwork shown by artists from around the world. This museum space is primarily supported by the work of dedicated volunteers and donations to the CAL. All support is greatly appreciated.

Another project is the CAL Gallery, which is a space run by local artists. CAL gallery artists are juried in and support the business aspects of the gallery. Gallery artists are from the San Francisco Bay Area; more than half of the Artists reside on the “Coastside”…but this does not mean that the work is necessarily regional. The Museum & Gallery takes pride in showing the best of an eclectic range of styles including regional, traditionalist and cutting edge art. Most members exhibit nationally and internationally.
