Monthly Meetings
Meetings are held the first Thursday of each month at 7:00 p.m., except in January in July, at the Gallery on State. Each meeting alternates with an artist demonstration and a "Create With KVAL" challenge where members are given a theme and present the results of their creations at the meeting at a general meeting. It's a fun way to learn about various art forms and to share your work. The end of each meeting is set aside for visiting with fellow artists.
Join us for a meeting. You will have a chance to get to know other artists and crafters and talk about your art passion. Check out our 2021 Calendar for our meeting schedule. Updates will be made throughout the year.
KVAL currently has one open position on our board: membership chair. Contact us for more information and to learn about each position's responsibilities.
