The St. Tammany Art Association was founded in 1958 by a small group of civic-minded individuals dedicated to bringing art to western St. Tammany Parish. Today the Art Association has over 800 members and serves as a catalyst for the arts. The organization has grown into a new building in downtown Covington to further serve the needs of emerging and established artists, and to provide arts education and exhibitions to the community.
The St. Tammany Art Association has new exhibits monthly featuring local artists. They are currently showing their Members Exhibit, displaying the art of the very talented members of the Art Association. The next opening reception is on March 10th, with a group showing of artists Jessica Danby, Gerald Canon, Kathy Rodriguez and Aaron McNamee. The exhibit will be titled “Engagement” and will explore the concept of communication: how we ‘engage’ one another, and new ways that we communicate. To view more upcoming exhibits, visit the Art Association website listed below.
The Office Manager and Gallery Attendants are available Monday through Saturday to answer questions about classes, exhibitions, reserving space, or becoming a member of STAA.
