Centerline Arts Group: Membership and F.A.Q.

The Centerline Arts Group welcomes local artists to our meetings: members and non-members. Members not only have access to our workshops and special events but also can enjoy other benefits such as borrowing books from our lending library. We have open studio hours where artists can come to create in a fun, casual setting. These open hours do not include instruction and artists can work with any medium (we typically have a still life set up). In nice weather we also enjoy going outside to paint or draw en plein air! Our structured monthly meetings are very informative and enjoyable, all include a demonstration.

Annual Membership Dues

Standard membership: $40

Senior Rate: $35

*Family plans or young artists: Email Bianca if interested! We have a lot of future youth programs in the works. We are adding extra dates for some of our workshops just for our youth artists!
