show is open to the public.
SA members often choose to display their work at other local
and area art shows, such as Artsplash, Latham Park, and other
local and area art shows.
Part of each meeting is devoted to feedback from
fellow artists on work in progress or a finished work
of art.
We regularly invite regional or area artists to
introduce and demonstrate new art forms, styles,
and techniques.
What are some community events and
activities where the public can meet SA
members and see their work?

Holiday Show each fall where they enjoy discussing
their work, the creative process, and inspiration for
their work with visitors.
Members also have the option of submitting work
to a competition, adjudicated by a professional
Siouxland Artists booth at Art Splash 2018.
