Youth Art Month
The MAEA Annual Youth Art Month (YAM) Exhibit at the state capital is sort of on semi-permanent display. With stay at home orders, it may be there awhile. Victor Daniels, the YAM chair, will keep us posted, but in the interim, please visit our YAM webpage to virtually enjoy the works on display. Thanks, Victor, for posting the works for us to enjoy from home.

MAEA Spring Retreat

   If member interest and Nicholas Danielson's availability align, MAEA will try to reschedule when the situation becomes safe for gathering again. The worst case scenario-we will seek out a Bray experience in spring 2021.
