OUR BEGINNINGS
We are a volunteer run, non-profit society created to support new and experienced artists. From the beginning we have inspired and encouraged members to develop their art via exhibitions, workshops, and events. We act as a community resource — to increase awareness and appreciation of art by connecting with our community. We continue to anticipate, create and extend opportunities to promote the arts and our artist members.
