Benefits in the Hamden Art League include opportunities to show your work in the annual Spring Golden Bells Exhibition, the Winter Silver Bells Exhibition, and additional shows that occur in our area throughout the year.
Members can also participate in a formal critique of their work, receive a regular newsletter that informs them of a variety of art activities and upcoming art exhibitions in the area.
The Hamden Art League encourages our artists to participate in local art classes and workshops as well as provides a year-long program of art technique demonstrations and lectures by well-known artists at our general meetings.
To encourage young artists HAL provides an Art Scholarship Award to a qualified graduating Hamden High School student pursuing study in the arts field.
Meetings occur on the second Tuesday of the month at the Hamden Miller Library Social Room. The meetings are preceded by brief “get-acquainted” receptions. Refreshments at 7:15 pm, followed by a brief business meeting at 7:20 and artist’s demo from 7:30 to 8:30 pm.
