Meetings are typically held the first Thursday of the month at the Lyndon House Art Center, 293 Hoyt St., Athens, GA 30601 (706) 613-3623. We begin at 7pm with a program, followed by a business meeting and refreshments. In December, we have a holiday party on a date decided by the members. Also, in May, we hold a spring social, often at a member's home or local park. The Athens Art Association does not meet in June, July, and August. We hope you will join us!
