In 1997, visual artists Robert Katsusuke Ogata helped establish the Downtown Artists Group in Fresno where he maintains a studio and paints full time. The group began ArtHop by opening their studios to the public once a month. This has grown into a city-wide event. He has also collaborated with Piet Ogata and Tim Padilla on the Downtown Artists Gallery to provide exhibition space to local artists. The studio and gallery are open for ArtHop on the first Thursday of each month and by appointment.
