Welcome! The Artists' Co-op of Mendocino is located in the charming north coast village of Mendocino, California. The Co-op has been a destination for traditional and contemporary fine arts since 1988.  We exhibit the work of 20 artist members and two guest artists.
​Did you know we moved?
Our new location, since January 2016, is at the NW corner of Kasten and Albion Sts in Mendocino (formerly the Reflections/Kaleidoscope store). 

​Membership and Guest Artists
Are you an active artist and interested in applying for Membership or being a Guest Artist?  We would like to meet you and encourage you to find out about our Co-op. Consideration is based on available space, gallery needs, and other attributes associated with a cooperative art gallery. 

Although we have limited space, we are building wait lists for potential members and guest artists. Currently we are actively seeking a 3D artist.
