In keeping with the City of Costa Mesa's motto "City of the Arts", the City of Costa Mesa's Cultural Arts Committee has established a Youth Art Gallery wall in the lobby of Costa Mesa City Hall. This gallery gives Costa Mesa Youth Non-Profit organizations or Costa Mesa Schools the opportunity to display their artwork quarterly (3 months). Artwork is displayed on 4x4 canvas boards. Lobby hours are open to the public Monday through Friday between 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
