our vision. 

The Meraki Art Foundation empowers underserved artists by providing access to creative space, education, mentorship, and opportunities that nurture both artistic and professional growth. Housed in the historic Dunaway Building, our mission is to remove financial and structural barriers, offer fully funded studio memberships, and create pathways for artists to exhibit, learn, and thrive within our community and beyond. Rooted in the belief that art transforms lives, we exist to cultivate a more inclusive, vibrant, and supportive creative ecosystem in Pacific Beach.
