About | The Visual Art Society

Our Mission

The Visual Art Society of Bryan-College Station is a volunteer, non-profit organization dedicated to providing opportunities for local artists of all ages and skill levels to explore, develop, and market their creations. Through events and educational programming, the Visual Art Society strives to foster the appreciation of visual art and aspires to raise awareness about the relevance and intrinsic value of the visual arts in our community. By nurturing the artist, we enrich the community!

Our members include artists from many different areas as well as those who support the arts. We meet monthly to hear from artists and see demonstrations. We hold art shows, teach workshops, award scholarships to high school seniors, and host fundraising events.

Visitors and new members are always welcome to attend our monthly meetings!
