Roxie Ray was a founding member of Studio Channel Islands; she was an artist, philanthropist, and political activist. Roxie worked with then president of California State University Channel Islands to establish a colony of artists on the campus of the emerging University. She served on the board of Studio Channel Islands and on several committees, advancing the artistic ambition and community impact of the organization.

In 2019 she established the Roxie Ray Endowment to support Studio Channel Islands in delivering its mission. Through support from her endowment we are excited to offer emerging artists access to subsidized studio space.
