Our mission is to provide our residents of Forsyth County, art advocates, artists, artisans, and art partners with a rich experience. We seek to foster their creativity, innovation and imagination. Having been organized since 1970, we understand the local art community and want to provide opportunities for them to share their talents with others. We believe in giving the opportunity from the beginner to the advanced artist the ability to feel welcome to display their work and improve their skills through fellowship and community.

With over 100 members working in many medias, such as Acrylics, Oils, Wood, Jewelry, Pottery, Photography, Mixed Media, Fiber and Textiles, Watercolor, Pastels, Pencil and Charcoal, you will be sure to find your kindred spirit.Get the Newsletter
