Are you a Resident of Waterlefe who enjoys participating in and/or supporting visual arts?  Then the Manatee River Artists Guild is for you! Members need not be artists or crafters, but should have an interest in the visual arts. Membership is open strictly to Waterlefe residents.

​

The Guild has been an integral part of Waterlefe since 2006 with a mission to Keep Art Alive in our community. We are committed to promoting art in our local schools by providing financial support to their Visual Arts Programs. When you join MRAG you support the arts in our community and help to Keep Art Alive.

Members enjoy Art Tripping visits to museums, galleries and art shows; an ever-changing variety of Artists In Motion classes in jewelry, painting, fused glass, mixed media and print making; and are eligible to exhibit in our annual Art Show. We also gather socially throughout the year, where comradery and sharing are enjoyed.

If you are interested in helping to Keep Art Alive and participating in our activities, please submit a membership application form or contact Judy Kovaleski-Swartz at manateeriverartistsguildsec@yahoo.com for more information.

Memberships are on a calendar year basis. If you join in October, November or December your membership includes the next calendar year.
