The Association of Animal Artists was founded in 2009 to offer opportunities and support to animal artists who have already attained a level of expertise and experience, whether as amateurs or professionals and who wish to promote and exhibit their artwork and further progress their skills. AAA invites artists to join us for a variety of art events throughout the year. It is the friendship and genuine support that the artists give each other, and, to the charities AAA supports, which are the hallmark of the Association.

 

Information

Association of Animal Artists

The Association of Animal Artists offers its members exhibition opportunities, workshops, field trips, 'AAA Art Rendezvous' days, an 'AAA plein air group' and the annual ?AAA Charity Dinner?. The ethos of AAA is that all the artists are encouraged to create and exhibit artwork of absolutely any animal; in the air, on the land or in water, in any medium and style. Artists are positively encouraged to explore and enjoy their creativity which leads to varied and dynamic exhibitions.

In addition, AAA is committed to supporting its animal charity partners and actively works to promote them, including Lancashire Constabulary Retired Police Horse Benevolent Fund, World Horse Welfare, Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust (Martin Mere Wetland Centre) and the Thoroughbred Rehabilitation Centre.

AAA is a member of the Fine Art Trade Guild, which offers a special discounted subsidiary rate to Association members who are professional or who are on their way to becoming artists full time.
