About WAA

WELCOME!

The Weatherford Art Association was organized on July 14, 1966 as a non-profit organization with 32 charter members. The purpose of the Association is to promote art appreciation among our members and the general public through educational activities, instructional programs, lectures, class instruction and public display of fine art. Membership is open to all active artists willing to participate in the activities and maintenance of the Association on a regular basis. Inactive artists and non-artists who display an active interest in WAA’s purposes may also become members. Membership dues are payable each September. Adult, family and youth memberships are available. Meetings of the membership are held on the 4th Monday of each month at 6:00 p.m.  and an instructional or art work demonstration is usually presented at the meeting.
