Oregon Coast Council for the Arts (OCCA) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization developing, promoting, supporting, and celebrating community arts on the central Oregon Coast.

Oregon Coast Council for the Arts (OCCA) supports and presents numerous arts programs in both performing and visual arts, including the Oregon Coast Jazz Party, the Newport Paper and Book Arts Festival, our mobile arts classroom – the Oregon Coast Art Bus, our annual youth summer camps in visual and performing arts, and various arts learning classes for adults and youth alike throughout the year. We also present annually the Metropolitan Opera – Live in HD series, and National Theatre Live.

OCCA also recently launched our Teaching Artist Preparation program (TAP) – providing community artists with tools and paid training to help develop their abilities as instructors.

OCCA seeks to engage our communities (artistic, cultural, and geographic) and provide an environment in which everyone feels welcomewanted, and appreciated, with the support and respect needed to be their full, authentic selves.


OUR VALUES…

BELONGING

We seek to engage our communities (artistic, cultural, and geographic) and provide an environment in which everyone feels welcomewanted, and appreciated, with the support and respect needed to be their full, authentic selves.


LEARNING

Curiositywonder, and discovery are the sparks that inform and ignite everything we do. We aim to create an atmosphere of active learning in which artistic, personal, and organizational growth are supported and nurtured.


CREATIVITY

We aspire to be flexibleadaptive, and responsive, encouraging innovation and imagination by providing the space and freedom to explore ideas—valuing intention over perfection.


INCLUSION

We believe that access to the arts is an intrinsic right and vital to human thriving. We are committed to equitable access and building a culture of inclusion in which what makes us unique is celebrated, and barriers are acknowledged and addressed. We encourage diverse perspectives and voices but set a strong boundary against hatred and intolerance.


COLLABORATION

We value teamwork and openhumble collaboration–understanding that we are collectively stronger when we recognize our differences as strengths.
