 The Cannon Beach Arts Association supports,
funds, and enhances
the arts and artists
in the Cannon Beach community
through education, events, and exhibits.
The Cannon Beach Arts Association (CBAA) is located in Cannon Beach on the scenic north Oregon coast. A nonprofit organization since 1985, the CBAA was founded with the intention of enhancing the vitality of the arts in Cannon Beach and the surrounding area. The CBAA continues to fulfill this goal today by bringing a wide variety of programs to members of our community and to visitors to our part of the Pacific Northwest coast. CBAA programs also provide opportunities for over 100 artists each year. The CBAA is run almost entirely by volunteers, allowing over 97% of its annual budget to go directly to programs. Contributions from dedicated members help fund the CBAA’s programs as well as leverage thousands of dollars in grants from businesses, foundations and government agencies.
CBAA’s most visible program, and headquarters for the organization, is the Cannon Beach Gallery. The Gallery offers exhibits that change on a monthly basis and feature regional and local artists.
A Summer Concerts in the Park program offers free concerts in Cannon Beach’s downtown City Park. These family friendly concerts are a great opportunity to enjoy a casual evening of top notch entertainment. For dates and times see the calendar of events at the bottom of our “Programs” page.
An annual $2,500 Individual Artist Grant provides the opportunity for an artist(s) to pursue a project of significance. Part of each project is returned to the community in the form of an exhibit, performance or publication.
The CBAA also sponsors special events and fundraisers. Please browse our “Programs” page for more information about all of our programs and a calendar of events.
