PVAA Supports Women’s and Black History

Welcome to PVAA! We are an artist collective where member artists actively contribute to the preservation and growth of visual arts in our community. We organize and present rotating exhibits, offer a variety of classes, and operate the successful Gallery SOHO situated in the heart of the Claremont Village in Claremont, California.

“Our Art Association’s purpose is to build a basic love of art, requiring vision and sincere effort to achieve something meaningful and to foster deep aesthetic feeling”. Millard Sheets, founding artist, 1952.

Mosaic by Millard Sheets

A PVAA Founding Artist

This Millard Sheets mosaic is located on the outside south-facing wall of US Bank at the NE corner of Indian Hill & Foothill Boulevards in Claremont, CA. This mosaic shows First Nation people on horseback pausing among the many booming yuccas on Mt. Baldy and its valleys, which fill the area with a strong, lovely scent.
