Our members meetings held the second MONDAY (6pm to 7:30) of every month feature art demonstrations, open art talks, presentations, and education. It's a chance to meet and talk with other artists and to share questions, insights, perspectives, and enthusiasms. Our member meetings are open to the public, so bring a friend!

El Dorado Hills Art Association Year End Update: Support of Educational and Cultural Programs, Scholarships, Young Artist. 2021 was yet another tumultuous year. Dominated by Covid-19, lockdowns, economic instability in the art world -- draining most of us emotionally and physically -- El Dorado Hills Art Association continued its activities. We started the year conducting board meetings via “Zoom” without any in person contact. Once Covid-19 restrictions were eased in late September, we were able to bring members of our community together for in-person general meetings in October, November & December. The year ended with us managing to pull off a very successful Studio Tour. Thanks to all the hard work achieved by Bonita Gohler and her volunteer staff. El Dorado Hills Art Association remains committed to its membership. We look forward to having our members continue to develop their friendships. Last year, we rented a centrally located meeting room to accommodate our membership meetings and demos as well as continue our High School Artist Scholarship program for 2022. Our community, volunteers and members continued to demonstrate their generosity, determination, and commitment to overcome obstructions and worked diligently to promote our association. Together, this year with the support of our generous membership and volunteers, El Dorado Hills Art Association has: • Proudly Awarded $ 1,000 in Scholarships to a deserving local university student • We had a very successful Studio Tour with some 47 participating artist • Supported the local Buckeye School system with their virtual art contest. Many members worked as contest judges and the students proudly displayed their artwork at our Studio Tour. • Proudly our membership provided art supplies to the Buckeye school system as prizes to the winner of the Virtual art show. • One of our own members --Melissa Keyer – did a wonderful job of spearheading the Buckeye school system contest. Despite the pandemic, wildfires, smoke, and 18 months of isolation from in-person meetings, we have come through the many obstacles that 2021 has put in our way. But with still some major concerns about (Omicron variant) for the New Year, we as a group will indeed endeavor to move forward. On behalf of El Dorado Hills Art Association I wish our members and friends a happy and healthy New Year Ronald P Robidoux President |

Our regular membership meetings each year provide a wonderful opportunity for local artists to spend quality time with other artists. Whether you are a well-known master or an aspiring novice, you'll enjoy our friendly gatherings where we share our passion for the visual arts, our questions and expertise, as well as tips, opportunities, and well-deserved recognition. (In person meetings start with snacks and socializing, a few announcements, and then an exciting demonstration, art talk, or presentation. You are welcome to bring a friend to share in the fun.)
