Meetings: 7:00 to 8:30pm, usually the first Tuesday of the month from September through June.
Always informative and a chance to socialize with fellow artists, the meetings begin with MAA business, announcements of interest and a welcome to new members. After a brief break for refreshments, our featured guest speaker, chosen from various disciplines in the art world, will give a presentation.
At one of the meetings during the year, we arrange for a critique of members’ artwork by a local prominent artist. Get-togethers in June and December are potluck socials and there are no meetings during July and August.
