Kittery Art Association Memberships

Founded in 1958, The Kittery Art Association is located at 2 Walker Street in Kittery Foreside. We showcase visual art from our members in rotating exhibits, artist spotlights, and in our retail shop. The building offers a vibrant space for workshops, demonstrations, artist talks, and our live music series. The gallery features the work of Seacoast Artists in rotating exhibits and welcomes new members and art appreciators of all skill levels, all of whom volunteer their time and talent to ensure a thriving art association. We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, committed to our mission: to cultivate a passion for the arts, create a lively arts community, and nurture, celebrate, and promote the work of local artists.

We are pleased to offer several different levels of membership. Membership Fees are paid annually and expire on the final day of the year.
