Art
We are all about art. At any moment, works of art in almost every medium are being dreamed, planned, made, shown, or discussed somewhere in our building – and are inspiring artists and the public to begin the cycle again.

Works
We enable the entire creative process. We provide a comprehensive incubator for emerging artists and art-related businesses. From low-income housing for artists, to affordable studio space, technique classes, lectures, events, and of course exhibit galleries, we bring together under one roof all the elements our community needs to make art work.

Downtown
We are firmly rooted here. As rising costs drive working artists out of many downtown areas, we’re committed to promoting art where the public can easily experience it: on San Rafael's Fourth Street. We’re proud to make an impact on our local community, and fortunate to draw inspiration from its cultural richness.

2nd Friday Art Walk
Enjoy galleries, open studios, art exhibits, live music and refreshments as you stroll in downtown San Rafael. Anchored by Art Works Downtown galleries and artist studios, the 2nd Friday Art Walk links venues along downtown Fourth Street the second Friday of each month.
