About this Organization:
The Cambridge Art Association (CAA) was founded in 1944 by a group of local artists and art supporters. At the time, there was no other local association like it. The CAA was a space for exhibiting work, learning new techniques, and socializing. It was - and is - above all, a community of artists.
Today, the CAA currently maintains three gallery spaces across Cambridge:
* the Kathryn Schultz Gallery (25 Lowell Street, Cambridge).
* CAA @ University Place Gallery (124 Mount Auburn Street)
* CAA @ Canal Gallery (650 E. Kendall Street)
Our robust membership of artists and art supporters exceeds 700 members and is open to all.
What do we do? We present in person and online exhibitions, and create opportunities for local and regional contemporary artists to engage with gallery owners, curators, collectors, and each other through networking events, portfolio reviews, and other professional development programs and hands-on learning opportunities.
