The Visual Chronicle of Santa Cruz County
The Visual Chronicle of Santa Cruz County is an archival collection of works on paper owned by the County of Santa Cruz that portrays artists' ideas, visions and perceptions of what makes this County unique. The intent of the collection is to document the spirit of the times in Santa Cruz. People, neighborhoods, landmarks, buildings, events, daily life - will be captured on paper by some of the leading artists in the County.

A selection panel will convene annually to chose work for the Visual Chronicle from submissions and proposals received each year by the deadline. To have work considered for the collection, professional artists residing in Santa Cruz County may submit images of existing work to be purchased, or turn in a proposal for a commission with images of past work for reference.
