Benefits of Membership
Show & sell art work at the Gallery, outside shows and exhibits.
Members may show artwork in the gallery and may participate in EAC sponsored shows and exhibits.

Learn lots of great stuff and have fun at membership meetings.
EEAA membership meetings provide an opportunity for members to share ideas on art at all levels...from amateur to professional. Demos are scheduled, guest speakers are invited and activities are planned. We encourage you to become involved in running the organization.

Our Newsletter will keep you informed of important upcoming events. Read what other members are up to, what's happening at our Gallery, who's giving classes and workshops, and when they are scheduled.
