Located in the historic IOOF Hall in Downtown Redding, The Art Hunger Gallery is a vibrant hub for creativity and community.

This collaboration has been instrumental in bringing our vision to life and creating a vibrant arts community in the heart of the city.
THE ART HUNGER at The Historical IOOF Hall
and our partnership with VIVA DOWNTOWN
In the Summer of 2021, The Art Hunger transformed the historic IOOF Hall in Downtown Redding into a vibrant hub for art and community. Our flagship event, the Summer Gallery, was a 3-month residency that featured rotating exhibitions, artist talks, workshops, and Creative Hangouts.
In its inaugural year, the Summer Gallery showcased over 1,200 original artworks by artists from across Northern California. The success of the Summer Gallery not only highlighted the incredible talent in our region but also brought the community together in celebration of art and creativity.
Collaboration with Viva Downtown
This transformative project was made possible through our partnership with Viva Downtown Redding, a Main Street America Organization dedicated to the social, cultural, and economic development of Downtown Redding. With their support, we’ve been able to activate the IOOF Hall for 4 years, creating a safe and inclusive space for artists and art lovers alike.
Our collaboration has grown stronger each year, leading to additional projects like the Winter Gallery, Art in the Park, and themed exhibitions such as "The 80's Art Party" and "Viva El Pop!" Together, we’ve hosted more than 50 art shows.
Impact on the Community
The partnership between The Art Hunger and Viva Downtown has had a profound impact on the Redding community.
Together, we’ve contributed to the cultural and economic revitalization of the downtown area by:
Supporting Local Artists: We’ve provided a platform for emerging and underrepresented artists to showcase their work, gain exposure, and connect with the community.
Fostering Cultural Growth: Our events have brought people together, sparking dialogue, creativity, and a deeper appreciation for the arts.
Creative Economy: By showcasing local artists, hosting exhibitions, and collaborating with businesses and organizations, we’ve created opportunities for artists to thrive while attracting visitors and stimulating economic activity in Downtown Redding.
In recognition of our efforts, The Art Hunger Gallery was named Best in the North State by The Redding Record Searchlight in the category of Best Art Gallery in 2022, 2023 and 2024—a testament to the power of collaboration and community.
Join us as we continue to build a brighter, more creative future for Redding!
