Claremont Temporary is a new collective of artists, curators, and educators based in the Claremont area. Established through a series of dialogues among local creatives, Claremont Temporary emerged in response to the limited availability of responsive and inclusive contemporary art venues in the region.

Claremont Temporary fosters exploration and experimentation by providing exhibition opportunities for early- and mid-career artists and curators. Through its programming, the collective aims to cultivate new dialogues within the Claremont arts community and expand the presence of contemporary art in the area.

Claremont Temporary is a production of Curious Publishing, a 100% artist owned and operated  grassroots small press and artist think tank amplifying marginalized voices in Southern California. Curious Publishing is Fiscally Sponsored by The Arts Area, a Non-Profit 501(c)3 Organization operating out of Upland, CA since 2017.
