Guild of Charlotte Artists

President's Message

Dear Guild Members,

As the year draws to a close, I find myself reflecting on the incredible creativity, passion, and dedication our member community has brought to the Guild of Charlotte Artists in 2024. This year has been a remarkable journey, filled with inspiring exhibitions, workshops, and collaborations that have showcased the extraordinary talent of our membership.

As we look ahead to 2025, we are already planning exciting new opportunities to support and promote your artistic practice. From exhibitions and networking events to presentations at The Mint Museum Randolph, and other educational programs, the Guild remains committed to helping you thrive as an artist.

On behalf of the entire Board, I want to thank each of you for contributing to the Guild’s success this year. At over 300 members, your participation, creativity, and support make our organization the vibrant community that it is.

Wishing you a joyful holiday season and a creative, prosperous New Year!

Warm regards,

Mikel

Generations of Exceptional
Creativity

Welcome to the Guild of Charlotte Artists!  Our non-profit organization has been around since 1948, offering camaraderie, education, and opportunities for our members.  We are artists in the Charlotte area who enjoy networking with other artists, learning new techniques, and showing our work in competitive venues.  We feel that art joins us together, without regard for differences in race, religion, nationality, sexual orientation, or gender.

We offer monthly meetings with guest speakers, an informative newsletter, shows, and exhibitions.  

Our current members work in watercolor, oils, pastels, acrylic, sculpture, photography, digital, and mixed media. 

If you are creative, you are welcome!

Member Shows

Throughout the year, the Guild sponsors judged art shows for its members in the Charlotte area. These shows allow artists to display their latest creations and compete for ribbons and awards. They also provide a venue for the public to view, appreciate, and purchase art from the talented local visual artist community. At least two shows are held each year, one in the Spring and one in the Fall.

Programs

Our monthly events, programs, and workshops offer a mix of educational and inspirational topics, demos, as well as marketing and business information.

Support the Guild of Charlotte Artists!

We are a non-profit organization dedicated to fostering and promoting the visual arts in our community. Your generous donation helps us provide valuable resources and opportunities to Charlotte's artistic community. Every contribution, big or small, makes a difference!
