The Canal Arts creates and teaches lively public art in Marin and San Rafael’s Canal community. Art that inspires, visually celebrating Canal cultures and building connections to other Marin communities. We believe art nourishes a thriving community and its environment, vital to a good life.

This map shows the Canal, bright blue, a crowded, historically underserved Latino immigrant community, part of a commercial/industrial district, light blue, in the midst of a healthy, wealthy Marin County that depends on the Canal, but knows little about it.
