Welcome to Foothills Art Association: Where Creativity Meets Community
We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit art gallery dedicated to keeping the visual arts vibrant, inclusive, and free to the public across San Diego County. More than just a gallery, FAA is a creative hub where time-honored traditional fine art and cutting-edge digital mediums thrive side-by-side. Whether you are a lifelong professional, an emerging artist, or an art lover looking for inspiration, there is a place for you here.
