Great Art for All

The SAA is for everyone with a love of painting and a wish to create great art. The largest and friendliest art society in the world, we offer art for all, regardless of ability.

SAA members have an exclusive range of great value benefits including huge savings and discounts on thousands of great art products at great prices, along with our unique SAA promise - a guarantee to match any cheaper price you might find, and the reassurance that if for any reason you are not happy with a product you can return it at any time, for any reason - always. Great news!

But creating great art isn't just about art materials. You also need help, encouragement and inspiration and this is where the SAA really comes into its own. With over 45,000 individual members, 750 great art teachers and over 1200 art groups around the country, the SAA is the perfect place to meet like-minded artists, make new friends and have access to everything you need to create great art at a local level, as well as having the reassurance and advice from a national organisation.

On this website you can find local art tutors, art groups, and can even contact members near you to share tips, trade great art ideas and make new friends. You can also upload your paintings, enter competitions, chat through the forum with others and get friendly advice - all of which we believe are good for artists and art itself.
