"The Euphrat Museum of Art at De Anza College is the only organization that I’ve witnessed actively (bridging the gap between the new and established artist). They are a rare entity comprising the delicate bridge from unequipped inexperience to confidence and practical life-experience. They have been irreplaceable in my educational experience, giving me a clear sense of what goes into art preparation and presentation for a real-world audience in a real-world public venue. The Euphrat enforces values of community relevance and creative excellence, elements essential for artists’ career solvency. Without the Euphrat Museum, De Anza College would only offer ideas and studios, but could no longer step further, could not remain tangent to the world of professional art."
