The Coastal Arts League (CAL) has been supporting the arts and artists since 1979. CAL is a non-profit corporation operated by volunteers committed to the arts. 

CAL’s objective is to develop and support creative artistic talent in the Coastside Community. The Coastal Arts League maintains a free Museum and a Museum Store to showcase the talent of Coastside artists and art groups. Monthly exhibitions in the Museum may be the work of individual artists, or other regional art organizations. CAL's exhibits offer a diverse range of 2-D & 3-D art in its annual shows, or in new & featured exhibits each year.

The 2013 list of exhibits give a good example of the breadth and depth of exhibits at The Coastal Arts League.
