where creativity and community can develop, expand and flourish
UPDATE AUGUST 13:
VIRTUAL O’HANLON CENTER
From the Board and Staff
Dear O’Hanlon Community:
We would like to give a heart felt thank you for staying with us during this pandemic. We hope you have been able to take advantage of our online community, since we are unable to meet in person at the Center.
At the August Board meeting, the Board of Directors voted to keep the center closed through January 31, 2021. We know this is not an ideal situation. This decision was not made lightly. We took into consideration the health and well-being of staff and members, current local trends and information from the county and state.
A subcommittee of the board and staff will be working together to develop a plan and protocol for reopening with our goal to be after January 2021. We will be continually monitoring this situation and closely follow the state and county guidelines for creating and maintaining a safe environment. Should our plans change, we will inform you as soon as possible.
In the mean time, we have been recording our online events. If you missed them live, don’t worry. See recordings on our new Vimeo page. Click Here

Our center’s facilities are now temporary art studios. We are hosting eight artists. Some spots are available for 2-4 weeks and others for longer. If you would like to be considered for a spot please contact Erma: erma@ohanloncenter.org
If you are not receiving email notifications about calls for art and workshops, please request to be added (see adjacent form).
We will continue to monitor the situation surrounding the coronavirus and keep you updated about our upcoming public programs. We wish everyone good health and invite you all to stay connected with each other through our “O’Hanlon From Home” Facebook page and Instagram page. Keep creative at home and share your work and discoveries remotely until we can meet together as a community in person again.
STAY SAFE!
Naomi Tamura, Board President
Erma & Ellen and the entire OHCA Board of Directors.
