The Kitchener Waterloo Society of Artists (KWSA) was established 80 years ago to foster the development of visual arts.

Our arts organization brings together people of all levels of artistic achievement, from emerging artists to professionals. We mentor and celebrate the triumphs of every individual artist. We offer monthly meetings with guest speakers and workshops to enrich our members. We continue to inform our artists of current developments in the arts regionally through this website, Facebook and email.

We host two to three well attended shows each year in which our artists exhibit their work through professionally juried and non-juried environments.

We support art in the region in a number of ways. Some of these include support for the Waterloo Community Arts Centre. Some of our members volunteer and donate their work for fundraising.

Our Constitution is at the bottom of this page, feel free to click the view link to find out more about the objectives, meetings and membership responsibilities of KWSA.

New members are always welcome! Please Contact Us or come to one of our meetings to learn more.
