Mission Statement

DIVA burst onto the Eugene visual arts scene late in 2003 as a non-profit membership and donor supported Center. With a stylish, festive ambience that mirrors its logo, DIVA has awakened high interest and expectations among frequenters of downtown Eugene.
 

The result of phenomenal volunteer energy and dedication, DIVA has gained attention and support through its highly visible downtown location, dedicated steering committee, broad range of programs, exhibits, and media arts screenings and performances.

 
DIVA's mission is to act as a catalyst for visual arts activities in downtown Eugene. It promotes the talent of artists and public appreciation of the arts by scheduling a diversity of programming that advances its mission as a multi-use visual arts center.

 
The Center exhibits traditional visual art and newer time-based forms such as film, video, digital, and multimedia installations. It offers a wide range of workshops, classes, and special arts related presentations and programs.

 

DIVA collaborates with other arts organizations such as the University of Oregon, Maude Kerns Art Center, and the Jacobs Gallery in scheduling a diversity of programming.
