WHO WE ARE
MISSION STATEMENT
To be the catalyst for artistic growth and professional success in Orange County, blending artist development with world-class event promotion. OCAC empowers artists to hone their craft, connect with their audience, and thrive in a professional creative ecosystem.
OCAC STORY
OCAC was founded in January 2024 by Gem Ceniza, Miles, and Emmeline Pennell with a bold vision: to create a space where artists could not only grow but also achieve professional success. From its roots as a community-driven collective, OCAC quickly evolved into a dual-purpose organization—a launchpad for artistry and a powerhouse event producer. With programs like Song Club and marquee events like The Big Show, OCAC has become a beacon for artists seeking both creative development and professional recognition.
OCAC PURPOSE
To create an integrated platform where emerging and established artists can develop their craft, connect with industry professionals, and gain access to professional opportunities in music, fashion, film, storytelling, and more.
