Ojai Mystique 2026

Landscape Paintings by 19 Nationally Renowned Artists

Ojai Mystique 2026 is the much-anticipated return of one of the Ojai Valley Museum’s most popular exhibitions. It will feature large and small-scale landscape paintings of the Ojai Valley by 19 of today’s most notable landscape painters.

The upcoming exhibit will be on view from April 16 through August 9, 2026.

The participating artists have been invited to find scenes within the Ojai Valley that inspire them to paint two canvases: one large masterwork, and one smaller landscape.

This exhibition invites us to discover the singular response of each artist to the quality of light and colors in this fabled valley, to enjoy their powerful synergy as a group, and to experience the resonance between art and nature, between beauty and mystery.

Exhibiting artists are: John Cosby, Steven Curry, Carolyn Lord, Kim Lordier, Jennifer Moses, Charles Muench, John Nava, Michael Obermeyer, Jesse Powell, Ian Roberts, Ray Roberts, Dave Santillanes, Dan Schultz, Frank Serrano, W. Jason Situ, Alexey Steele, Sarah Vedder, Anne Ward, Wendy Wirth.

Ojai Mystique 2026 is curated by Jennifer Moses and Dan Schultz.
