The Pasadena Society of Artists is an organization of professional artists whose purpose is to present the people of Pasadena, and surrounding Southern California communities,
the artworks of its most talented and creative residents.

The Society was established when Southern California was beginning to produce indigenous ‘Early California’ art that evolved into the varied and vital works being created today. We are dedicated to maintain the quality standards of craftsmanship and showmanship set forth by our Founders in exhibiting and promoting the fine art disciplines of; painting, sculpture, photography, drawing, collage, print making, and other vehicles of the creative process; while endorsing a wide range of styles that exist between the primitive and trompe l'oeil, the representational and abstract.
