Our Mission

The Art Guild of Paducah is an organization serving the community since 2009. We exist for the promotion of the visual arts and for artists in all media in Paducah and the surrounding region, as well as expansion of art education through programs and events.  Art Guild members support this mission through annual fees and through active volunteer opportunities with Art Guild events, educational activities, and community programs.

How to Get Involved

There are two ways to support the Art Guild:  through active membership and through financial contributions. 

Art Guild members participate hands-on in a variety of activities and have opportunities to promote their art and finished work.

Financial support doesn't require active participation, but membership is included with all contributions of $25.00 or more (you can contribute any amount of course!).

"Silver Star" members who contribute $200 or more get special recognition in our gallery window and in our newsletter.

Benefits of Membership

Members enjoy:
  • SPECIAL PERKS!: different promotions every year with membership renewal!
  • opportunities to meet and network with artists and interested community members
  • opportunities to volunteer for fun and worthwhile community events
  • opportunities to teach and to take classes, workshops, and educational presentations in the community
  • participation in regular quarterly Guild meetings 
  • opportunities to promote and sell artwork through special exhibits and through the Art Guild's cooperative Gallery & Gift Shop in the historic Market Square area of downtown Paducah. Exhibiting Membership is subject to an application and review process. (see online application and related documents)
