Welcome to Eastern Sierra Artists 501 c 3. We are a vibrant arts non-profit dedicated to making an impact in our community through the power of art. Our mission is to nurture and inspire our community to reflect the history, cultures, and beauty of the Eastern Sierra through the arts. Eastern Sierra Artists (formerly the Bishop Mural Society), believes that art has the ability to transcend traditional boundaries, reaching individuals from all walks of life. It is a powerful tool for dialogue, connection, and cultural appreciation.
Eastern Sierra Artists supports and connects artists throughout the Eastern Sierra region by funding and facilitating public art and events. Eastern Sierra Artists works with local artists, community members, and civic organizations to co-create public art projects to connect the public to our unique cultures and landscape; sponsors events in Downtown Bishop to build and support community; and is proud to support C5 Community Arts Center to bring artists together through shared studio spaces, gallery shows, and expansive arts education programming for children and adults.
