Artists'
Link, founded in 1989, is an all volunteer organization created
as a resource and support group for Memphis area visual artists, and as
a link between artists and the community.
Monthly
program meetings have included copyright law, artist colonies, photographing
art, demonstrations of art techniques and supplies as well as field trips
to local exhibitions, and critiques by local professionals and gallery
directors. Art workshops are also held occasionally at the Flowers Trout
Resort in Cotter Arkansas.
Artists' Link supports community
organizations each year with activities such as donating
to an Art Auction to benefit Exchange Club's Family Services, painting
a mural for the South Park Branch of Girls, Inc., donating a $200 painting
prize to Memphis Area Festival artists' competition each year for five years,
and assisiting a resident of the Kings' Daughters Home with her painting.
