We
are local artists and business people whose work benefits communities through education, exhibitions, and
scholarship.
Our Mission
To offer scholarship opportunities to students who wish to go on to colleges or technical schools for art-related courses and to encourage both appreciation and creation of fine art.
To
foster appreciation of art and artistic growth through exhibitions and
educational opportunities to communities.
To
extend cultural enrichment to the community at-large by presenting the best
examples of fine art.
How We Accomplish Our Mission
Although we are a young nonprofit, visual arts scholarships have been awarded to students of three high schools, and we plan to add a new school each academic year.
We have partnered with educators to provide and promote opportunities in the performing arts.
LAF continues to promote public art in our local environment.
Our Vision
We
seek to extend our financial outreach to individual students to enrich the
explorations of the visual arts by our youth. Our scholarships to post-secondary students encourages maturing artists to complete their education in an art-related
field of study.
We
will strengthen the communities as a leader in the visual arts by
hosting outstanding fine art exhibitions and shows.
