I suppose things have changed a bit since then, especially in the world of art. There was a time…read morewhen the styles, colors, and movements I admired were dominant, shaping the way I understood creativity. Artists worked with familiar techniques and mediums, and the galleries I visited felt like they followed a certain rhythm. Over time, though, the art scene evolved. New forms emerged, digital tools became central, and experimental approaches took the spotlight. Even the way people engage with art feels different now--social media, virtual galleries, and interactive installations have transformed the experience. Looking back, I'm struck by how the art that once felt timeless has become a memory of its era, and how the ever-changing nature of creativity reflects the world's constant motion.

I asked if they had classes for learning how to use spray paint for art. The owner mentioned the possibility of workshops in the near future! That's exciting. I bought a purse made by Lisa Gallegos, her brand being Lalish. It has the Pomona 6Ps logo. Well-made with a detachable strap and inside zipper pocket, for $25. She has an office in the back of OverSpray and a display case in the store. You can pay her by Venmo or Zelle using the QR code in the display case sign.

One would expect quality craftsmanship when spending $1200 to get two prints framed. Unfortunately that was not the case for me. After being weeks late of delivery date, both of the frames were dusty inside and the glass had water spots on the inside. I notice that one of my prints was creased as well. I pointed this out when picking up and was told that it came like that. This made it very awkward to argue since it's my word against hers and the print was in a tube that I opened at home but not in front of her. I asked if these things could be fixed. Came back a few days later to see that it was a little better but not perfect. I decided to take my prints and move on before they get worse. I wanted to support local and give this business a chance but I should have just taken my prints to Downtown Framers in LA. They always do a great job. I won't be back and will advise others to not take their work here.

Cute tiny museum with nice staff!…read more I think entry is normally $5, but they're doing a "pay what you want", which can be anything. I think $5 a fair price considering the museum's size, though-- it's more or less just 3 rooms. To be honest, I didn't like this current set of exhibits that much, but that's probably just a matter of taste. It's also located near a lot of other cool stuff in Claremont.

This is the physical headquarters of the Pomona Valley Art Association. It is also a co-op gallery…read morecalled "Gallery SoHo." I showed at this gallery for almost a full year, and I still serve as the newsletter editor for the association. There are a few issues with this gallery: 1)The gallery is more of a boutique then an art gallery. Yes there are a lot of paintings on the walls, but the presentation makes it feel like a boutique. The walls are painted different colors (yellow, green, rust/orangy color). It looks nice, but when it comes to vewing the artwork it's very overwhelming. There are a lot of nice pieces of art, a variety of style and media, but there is so much on the walls it's hard to see any one piece individually. It feels a bit crammed. 2) The lighting is really bad, and there is no AC. This is not nessecarily the PVAA's fault. The Owners of the property (Jeved) have refused to bring this and most of their buildings in Pomona into the modern age. There are fans running in the summer, but it's just not enough. If you have the patience to look through everything, you will find a few artworks that you'd like to take home. The prices are very reasonable and there are no commisions-all the money from a sale goes to that artist. Each month there is a "monthly show" with a different theme that anyone can enter. There is a specific wall dedicated to this show. All entries are displayed (no work is rejected unless there is a technical issue-i.e. video/computer work), the winners win anything from art supplies to cash, you can enter any and all monthly shows, and the money made off of the entries goes into gallery expenses, and prizes for the student shows they host. The Association is starting to bloom. It is a non-profit dedicated to creating inexpensive and free venues for members to show their artwork. They also offer classes. It costs $20.00 a year to be a member, which includes discounts on the monthly and annual shows they produce, as well as a subscription to the newsletter. To exhibit in Gallery Soho, it is $15.00 a month, plus 5 hours a month of working the gallery.
