Founded in 1947 we are an organization formed for the purpose of encouraging individual artistic growth and excellence. Geneva Lake Arts Foundation (formerly the Geneva Lake Art Association) fosters a community appreciation of the fine arts through the arrangement of shows, monthly programs, lectures, demonstrations and workshops.
We are a volunteer organization under the direction of an elected board of directors. We support and encourage all forms of art and cultural activities. Funding comes from donations, membership dues, gallery fees, sponsors, fund-raisers and the proceeds from our annual Art in the Park outdoor, juried fine art show.
The Geneva Lake Arts Foundation Gallery 223 features member artists in several shows each year. Newly paid-up members are eligible to display work in our member gallery shows, and after a six-month wait, in our member’s tent at our annual Art in the Park juried art show.
