“Postcards to Pacifica”
CALL FOR ENTRY
Deadline: Tuesday, August 20, 11pm pdt
$100 Artist Award per Neighborhood
Bay Area artists (ages 9 and up) are invited to submit original art that represents Pacifica’s nine neighborhoods:
  • Fairmont, Hillside Overlooking the Pacific Ocean
  • Fairway, Nestled between the Ocean and Hills by Sharp Park Golf Course and Mori Point Headlands
  • Linda Mar, San Pedro Valley former home of artichoke fields plus a Historic Adobe Rancho, Winding Creek and Surfers at Pacifica State Beach

  • Vallemar, Rustic Wooded Community Nestled in a Hillside Valley
Pacifica is a coastal town stretching six miles along the Pacific Ocean, with varied neighborhoods dissected by hills, valleys, and Highway 1. In a world where many don’t know their neighbors, Sanchez Art Center will provide a positive, fun, safe, creative, and memorable way for people in the community to engage with each other.
Entries will be reviewed by Sanchez Art Center (SAC) staff, and one artwork will be selected for each of the nine neighborhoods. SAC will then print the award-winning works in postcard format, and will distribute these at various community events through June 2020, asking community members to write on the card back what they love about their neighborhoods. SAC will share these Postcards to Pacifica at various events, online and on social media, and even through old-fashioned snail mail, bringing connection through the inspiring art and words of our neighbors.
This project, supported by funding from the San Mateo County Arts Commission and a sponsorship from Pacific Coast Fog Fest “Gift to Pacifica” Fund, has the goal of connecting all of Pacifica’s neighborhoods and creating community through art.
