Rome Art Association

Our Mission.

To promote and encourage the talents and abilities of our members.
To stimulate public interest in and appreciation of Fine Arts.
To encourage the development of facilities in Rome for these purposes.

Education.

We hold monthly meetings on the 1st Thursday of each month. Our motivation is to help our members in any way that we can. Meeting programs vary from framing tutorials to public art to critiques by esteemed guest speakers & much more. Our meetings are always free and open to the public.

Exhibitions.

We host a number of exhibits, including a constant rotation of member solo and group shows at the Cinema Capitol Gallery. We organize our 'Annual Membership Exhibition' and the 'Rome Regional' show, which is open to artists living within 100 miles of Rome. We also work closely with galleries in neighboring cities and towns to show our artists' work to new audiences.

Encouragement.

At its core, our organization is a social club, but we are so much more than that. We are a group for artists who meet and share experiences. A place where you can get feedback and feel comfortable. An organization accepting of everyone, those who are new to art or with years of experience. We care about artists, because we are artists.

Grow the Arts in Rome With us.

Our organization has been at the forefront of Rome's creative community since we were founded in 1958. Our members and volunteers give their time to build a better community for artists and the future generations of artists.
