Welcome to the Hemet Valley Art Association Website...

The Hemet Valley Art Association, Inc. was organized on December 16, 1963 with a Charter Membership including Donna Welch, President. The Hemet Valley Art Association held its first General Meeting January 30, 1964 with a balance in the treasury of $10.
Through the patronage of Earl and Kathleen Gilman, a clubroom was made available at Gilman Hot Springs with no cost to the Art Association. Many outstanding members of the community, including the Ramona Pageant and the Chamber of Commerce aided and promoted the progress and development of the Art Association.
The purpose of the organization is to inspire and develop beginning and student artists and to provide opportunities for amature artists to associate with the finest artists our society has to offer
Today, the Hemet Valley Art Association, Inc. is a non-profit, tax-exempt corporation with its own Art Gallery, professional art instructors, monthly meetings with art demonstrations, and several fund raising events each year that draw hundreds of people.
The membership continues to grow as the community expands.
Today, the Hemet Valley Art Association, Inc. features well-known artists at their Gallery exhibiting oils, acrylics, watercolors, pastels, pencil and charcoal, high-tech photography, and scupture and mosiacs.
Because of its commitment to the community and direct assistance to local artists, the Hemet Valley Art Association's dues remain very affordable at $30/year [$20 to add a spouse]. Student membership is $15/year.
