Seeking Member Participation!!
We know you love showing your work and artists are often introverts but we’d love to see you at our meetings, hear what you have to say, and maybe get some help from you too. We have a small group of members working hard handling 2+ volunteer positions to keep HAS running but we’d love your help!!
Participation provides social time with other artists. Get inspired and see what others are doing.
