A Community of Artists and People Interested in Art
Our Mission Statement: The Southern Shore Art Association creates and stimulates interest in the visual arts by offering exhibits, educational opportunities and social events for our members and for the community.
On the shores of Lake Michigan bordering Indiana and Michigan, The Southern Shore Art Association is an inspiring art organization that welcomes all artists in the Northwest Indiana, Illinois and Michiana areas. With over 80 artist members and growing, the SSAA helps promote all artists by offering member and non-member shows, classes, scheduled monthly critiques, plein air paint-outs and a wonderful sense of community.
