“Art Bank: Selected Works from the City of Santa Monica Art Collection” was on view at the Annenberg Community Beach House from February 2022 to October 2024. On view were paintings, prints, photography, sculpture, maquettes and preparatory drawings — an eclectic mixture of style and subject by standout artists from Southern California. The Art Bank municipal art collection was instituted in 1984 to bring art into Santa Monica’s public spaces, and is funded through the City of Santa Monica’s Percent for Art Program. This exhibit was also made possible with support from Gregory Annenberg Weingarten, GRoW @ Annenberg.
