Welcome to the Folsom Arts Association – Here’s what’s going on in 2026!

Welcome to the FAA!

Cultivating and supporting artists and art appreciation are the forces guiding our association, and the artistic diversity of our membership is our strength.

Folsom Arts Association hosts monthly Artist Demonstrations on the second Thursday of each month and quarterly Ceramics Demonstrations at The Gallery at 48 Natoma Street in Folsom. Workshops and art camps are held in the Folsom area, and members of the association teach art classes and workshops and exhibit their work through various shows throughout the year.

*NEW Scholarship Program

Folsom Arts Association is excited to announce the inauguration of what we hope will be an annual FAA Arts Scholarship to benefit local students pursuing arts education. This year, thanks to the generosity of FAA members and community donations, FAA will be awarding $1,000 to a deserving Folsom Lake College student. The application and screening processes are currently underway, with an award of our first scholarship anticipated by the end of March 2026.
