The Sedalia Visual Art Association is an organization of area artists, both professional and amateur, who are dedicated to providing a forum for their artistic expression with the opportunity to learn from each other.
The Sedalia Visual Art Association meets on the first Thursday of each month, 6:00 p.m. downstairs at Third National Bank's Residential Lending Center, 403 W. Broadway (southwest corner of Broadway and Moniteau Ave.), Sedalia, Missouri.
Monthly meetings include lectures and demonstrations by guest artists, as well as programs exploring the use of various media.
Workshops, field trips and paintouts are planned throughout the year and are open to all area artists, members and non members.
The Association sponsors several competitions during the year and co-sponsors the Fine Arts Events at the Missouri State Fair along with the Mid Missouri Artists and the Missouri State Fair.
The Association has gallery space available at the Liberty Center for individual member and group shows. The gallery space is also available to non members. For more information, please call Madge Gressley at 660-826-7080 or email mgressley@sbcglobal.net.
