Performing Arts in OC - Orange County, California



	Arts Orange County Arts Orange County (Arts OC) was established in 1995 as the nonprofit, countywide arts council of Orange County, California. It serves as a resource and advocate for the arts community, as a catalyst for leadership on arts issues, and as a sponsor of programs and services which enhance public awareness of arts activities and promote the development of the arts and arts education in Orange County.

	Laguna Beach Alliance for the Arts The citizens of Laguna Beach are some of the most talented individuals you’re likely to encounter. Behind the ivy-draped picket fences tucked among the town’s hillside neighborhoods are many creative residents working in a variety of artistic mediums. Some pay homage to the town’s original settlers by painting plein air landscapes, while others are busy sculpting future masterpieces from clay. There are also musical performers, thespians, and crafters who are regular fixtures at the annual Sawdust Festival. We invite you to visit our website for all things artistic in Laguna Beach.
