Our Mission

Needham Art Association is dedicated to promoting art and art education through support, artistic development and enrichment. The Association is proud of our yearly Scholarship Award to a deserving Needham High School senior who intends to pursue art education at college.

As a community-minded association, we welcome any and all new members who produce art in various mediums. Our diverse membership includes professional artists, recreational artists, teachers, students, and art enthusiasts. NAA provides many opportunities for members to display their work. We sponsor two judged exhibits, online galleries of members’ works, and opportunities to display paintings in various business locations in and around Needham. We also offer members the opportunity to create a portfolio of their paintings on the NAA website.

We host program demonstrations on the first Tuesday of the month at 7:00 pm from September through April. For 2024-2025, there will be a combination of in-person meetings in the Community Room at the Needham Public Library and Zoom presentations. All are welcome to attend. For more specific information about program demonstrations and Zoom registrations, visit the NAA Programs page.
