At AAG we are passionate about igniting the creative spark within each of us. We do this with an open sharing and exchange of ideas and expressions without concern of competition, along with words of encouragement and support. Collaboration, creative thinking, and sharing are all words that describe the culture at AAG.

This is seen in action through the success of our programs such as the Veterans Art Program, the Scholarship Awards, and an upsurge in attendance and participation in the monthly meetings and critiques. Entries to our Exhibits has also grown and we’ve recorded sales at almost every show. Several workshops last year reached sold-out capacity, some with wait lists! Membership has not only increased, but we are also attracting diverse artists. Our membership ages range from the 20’s to the 90’s.

AAG has met the goals established over the past few years and look to the future with a vision of an expanded community outreach program, increased scholarship disbursement, expanded mentorship program, new arts events for the general public, stronger connections with area community colleges, a significant role in the city of Phoenix public arts development, and enhanced collaborative working relationships with our sister arts organizations. All of this while continuing popular programs such as the Open Studio sessions, Life Drawing sessions, and the Art Supply Exchange.
