    Artist Wannabes
    Art Enthusiasts
    Art Collectors & Sharers
    Art Educators

    What do we do?

       We gather once a month to:
    Come together
    Discuss art, our art, others art, the world of art
    Share ideas and our work
    Challenge each other
    Get and give feedback, support, honesty, truth
    Laugh and drink coffee or tea
    Build resources for each other
    Get into the loop
    Make our own loops
    Brainstorm

    What do we believe?

    We believe that art isn't made in a vacuum.  We believe in the process and the product.  We come out of our studios,
    galleries, lives and living rooms to make connections with each other and open ourselves up to listen and exchange.

    BAS brings more ART into its Monthly Meetings
    The first half hour of our meetings are an informational/news/events discussion period.  The last hour of each meeting can be either an art
    workshop (that can include a hands on art activity or an artist resource exchange) or an artists dialogue discussion.  No art experience is
    necessary to participate in the hands on workshops and all members are encouraged to bring materials (if they have them) and join in on
    whatever level they feel comfortable.  Each art workshop will be hosted/coordinated by a different BAS member.

    NEW Series:  The Artists Dialogue
    The Beacon Art Salon is proud to present a new series called The Artists Dialogue.  This series will include discussions about various
    topics in, about and for the arts from the artists point of view.

    Artist Dialogue series subjects will include the following:
    Influences: Other artists, books, writers and music
    To gallery show or not to gallery show
    Spirituality in Art
    Environment & the Artist
