The
Antioch Fine Arts Foundation began in October 2001 as a center
for interaction among Northern Illinois and Southeastern Wisconsin
artists. AFAF is a not-for-profit organization whose function
is to coordinate and promote area arts programs. Our goal
is to foster knowledge and appreciation of the arts in the
local community.
Membership is open to artists, patrons of the arts, and anyone
interested in art appreciation.

*Gallery
Exhibitions: Any member can exhibit artwork in the gallery
(generally two pieces). Artwork is changed every two months.
Exhibiting members are required to pay a flat hanging fee of
$5 per month plus a commitment of four hours per month of gallery
sitting time. That time can be divided into 2-hour segments.
Occasionally,
a member might be selected to have a special show in the White
Room featuring several works. The White Room shows usually include
an opening reception.
Monthly
AFAF Member Meetings are the second Tuesday of every month
at 6.30 pm. Most
of the meetings offer an interesting program or demonstration
and refreshments. The upcoming programs are listed in each newsletter.
See News.
