Are your students in a club they love? Are you a part of a local non-profit or community organization? Are you an individual looking to finance a worthwhile cause? Get your friends to eat at Zachary’s and we will donate a percentage of our sales to your school or organization!   We would love to support your cause with a full day of fundraising at one of our four locations (Oakland, Berkeley, San Ramon or Pleasant Hill). We’ve hosted many preschools, middle schools and high schools in the past couple of years. Fundraiser nights are a fun community event as well as an easy way to raise a few extra dollars.     Raising money is as easy as eating a spinach and mushroom pizza.

The Zachary’s Pizza Art Contest is ON!

Submissions are due May 16, 2015. For details, click here.

We love Zachary’s Pizza Art from all ages: the young to the young at heart. We’ve adorned our walls with art from winners at age 4 to age 89! Some of our favorite pieces have been created by some very talented kids, kid-buddy collaborations and family collaborations. Here are a few previous Zachary’s Pizza Art Contest Winners:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Did you ever wonder how the walls of Zachary’s became home to so many fun, pizza-inspired pieces of art? All of the art at each of our four locations is a winner from one of our past art contests!

Now is your chance to contribute your original Zachary’s Pizza Art!

The deadline for this year’s art contest is Saturday, May 16th, 2015. Each Zachary’s location will have paper canvas and entry forms. You must submit your artwork on the paper canvas provided and we cannot accept any artwork without the entry form. It is very important that you read all of the rules carefully before beginning work on your art.

In the past, Zachary’s artists have used a myriad of sources for inspiration. Please visit our online art gallery to see some of the past winners. Of course, the best source of inspiration is probably eating some of your favorite pizza while surrounded by lots of amazing pizza art!

 

Back by popular demand, the Zachary’s Roasted Pepper Special is now available at all four Zachary’s locations! This pizza has red, green and yellow bell peppers, pasillas, Anaheim chiles, and onion. It comes with jack and cheddar cheese. It’s available Stuffed or Thin!

 

 

This is a customer and crew favorite! Try it just like it comes or add some pepperoni for a meatier version.

The walls of our restaurants are filled with one-of-a-kind Zachary’s Pizza Art. We held our first art contest in the late 1980′s and the tradition has continued every couple of years to this day. We love our art and the artists! 

Now 90 years fantastic, Marvin Ehrlich knows great pizza and he knows great art. We adore Marvin’s winning piece “The Joy of Eating Zachary’s is Why We Come Back Again and Again”! When we reached out to Marvin, he responded with a heart-warming, handwritten letter.

Thank YOU, Marvin! You are the best!
