MISSION
Tapestry Arts nurtures creativity by advocating the arts and providing arts education programs to the community.

HISTORY
Tapestry Arts began in 1976 as part of the country's bicentennial celebration and continues to this day with the annual Tapestry Arts Festival each Labor Day Weekend. The festival is a three-day celebration of the visual and performing arts held on the streets of downtown San Jose. However, this is just the beginning of Tapestry's community arts connection. Proceeds from the festival help fund our arts education programs in elementary schools throughout the South Bay.

Known for many years as Tapestry In Talent, the organization changed its name to Tapestry Arts in 2002. Tapestry Arts is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
