PHOTO GALLERY: OCC art students get political at Mass Appeal exhibit | Arts And Culture

The Orange Coast College Doyle Arts Pavilion hosted the annual Mass Appeal exhibit on May 7, 2026, featuring student artwork including paintings, drawings, photographs, and sculptures. The exhibition runs until May 21 and is described as having a political theme, with students engaging with current issues through their art.

This exhibition matters because it showcases how emerging student artists at a community college are using visual art to engage with political and social themes, reflecting broader trends in art education and youth expression. It also highlights the role of local academic institutions in fostering creative dialogue and providing a platform for new voices in the art world.
