The New Rochelle Art Association The NRAA is celebrating its 100th year. Its home base has always been at the New Rochelle Public Library. Recently, the Association was given an opportunity to show outside the library in a much larger exhibit space, hence the name 'Living Large'. Members took the opportunity to enjoy a change of pace and exhibit some of their larger works of art. The exhibit is open to the public and all are invited to 'live large' with the NRAA, September 20-22, 2012.
THE NEW ROCHELLE ART ASSOCIATION has a long tradition of promoting and supporting artists and the visual arts. Since its informal inception in 1912, the association has included among its membership many talented and internationally known painters, illustrators and sculptors. The organization set formal goals among which were to “set an educational standard in the Fine Arts and promote interest in art in the community.”
Today, by promoting and broadening the awareness of the arts in the community, and the world at large, the New Rochelle Art Association continues its mission. It is the hope that by carrying out the precepts set up by its founding members, the NRAA will continue to bring beauty, art, and quality of life to everyone associated with it.
