The VFAA formed in February 2005 to create art, teach techniques, and encourage fellowship among artists in the Matanuska-Susitna Valley.  Thereby we also strive to promote a supportive attitude toward visual arts in our Alaskan community.

Who we are...

We welcome beginners, students, part-time and professional artists who focus mainly on two-dimensional art mediums and want to connect with other creatives and gain more exposure locally.

During the school year, VFAA organizes regular sessions for painting together and hosts monthly artist demonstrations at  Mat-Su college.  Throughout the year, we inform our members about opportunities to show their work, participate in group events, view other local artists, and enroll in workshops.

VFAA members have the exclusive privilege to schedule their own art show at the popular local Bagels Alaska Restaurant, as well as participate in our booth at the Alaska State Fair.

Membership with the Valley Fine Arts Association provides many diverse opportunities for artists.  Check our Calendar page for upcoming events!

Members Susan McNeil and Dee Tunseth get to focus on their painting at an Open Art session.
