About Membership
We are open to anyone, anywhere.
NEW THIS YEAR:
-
Easy RENEWAL (let us know if anything has changed).
-
FREE SUBMISSION FEE to the Members' Show. (You still have to submit your images and info between Sept 11 and Oct 16)
-
Giving of your TIME/TALENTS.
GIVING OF YOUR TIME/TALENTS - There are new opportunities in the works. We will only consider them if you are involved with the efforts.
Therefore, we are being bold and requesting that ALL ARTIST and STUDENT MEMBERS be ACTIVE participants by giving a FEW HOURS FOR A TASK or taking on an ONGOING ROLE ON A COMMITTE/year.
We hope you see this request as a good thing to keep the guild moving forward in a healthy manner.
Thank you!

FAQ's
Even though I’ve stopped being a member of other guilds, I stay active with Pottstown Area Artists' Guild because of its inclusive nature and encouragement. R.D.
I am quite far from most gallery happenings and need to cut out some involvement, but I intend to stay a Pottstown Area Artists' Guild member for several reasons. They do a great job on their Online Gallery, Winter Members’ Show, and website. I especially love that they offer a personal member page where a PDF of my artbook can be accessed! C.M.
