Elk Grove Artists (EGA) is a non-profit, tax-exempt, visual arts organization made up of local artists and art supporters/patrons near Sacramento, California. EGA has been in existence for more than 20 years.
The EGA has various fundraisers to raise scholarship money for local high school students who are planning to major or minor in visual arts programs in college.
