Annual Board Elections
Please join us at the May in-person member meeting to stay up-to-date with the annual elections for Board of Directors and Committee chairs.
The pandemic threw the Orange Art Association (OAA) off track and the annual elections were put on hold. OAA is aiming to grow the membership, get back on track, and infuse the association with new people and new ideas.
Local artists: If you are considering joining Orange Art Association, now is the perfect time to get involved!
How can you get involved? Attend the next member meeting (see schedule below) at the Community Christ Church (395 S. Tustin St. in Orange). We meet in the back building, through the gate, to the left. Attending a member meeting as a free guest (available 1 time to each person) will allow you to get to know some members and learn a bit more about OAA.
