Established in 1991, the WAA is a non-profit community art organization that primarily supports the fine art of drawing and painting, catering to a population of both amateur and professional artists.
We are supported by our membership fees, donations and grants made possible through the Brunswick Arts Council, Focus Broadband, and many others. Our studio is provided by the Bellinger Arts Studio.
General Membership meetings are held at 10:30am on the third Wednesday of each month from September to May, excluding December. All are welcome!
Our organization works because of the dedication of member volunteers. Through their time, talents and background experiences, volunteers staff our Executive Board of Directors and head various committees. Below are a few of the many ways you can help. When everyone works their part for Waterway Art, then Waterway Art works better for everyone.
