Greetings!

It is time to renew your FAEA membership for the 2022-2023 school year. FAEA memberships purchased in the previous school year expired on June 30, 2022. Renew your membership today to ensure you will continue to have access to FAEA's events, resources, and opportunities this fall and next spring.

Don't forget to submit your work to the Member Virtual Exhibition (MVE)! This is FAEA's statewide juried art exhibition. Artworks accepted into the MVE are eligible for awards and are celebrated at the 2022 FAEA Conference and on the FAEA website. Visit the FAEA website to learn more and submit your artwork by August 31, 2022.

Save the date! The 2022 FAEA Annual Conference will be held October 13-16. Registration will open soon! We have so much planned for you this year, including:
  • Hands-on workshops and product demonstrations
  • 2 Keynote Speakers: Marilyn Stewart & Amy Gross
  • Museum tour at the Orlando Museum of Art and the Morse Museum
  • Member Virtual Exhibition Reception (sponsored by the Ringling College of Art & Design)
  • Artist Bazaar
  • New Teacher Big Giveaway
  • Gala with a DJ, dancing, and costume contest

Help support art education in Florida's schools by donating to FAEA and becoming an FAEA Patron! With your support, FAEA will continue to grow its programs for teachers and students, strengthen united advocacy efforts, and improve your professional development opportunities. Donate today and make a difference! In addition to donating via your FAEA account, we have added a new way to support FAEA through AmazonSmile. When you shop at https://smile.amazon.com/ch/51-0182663, Amazon donates a percentage of your eligible purchase price to FAEA, and there are no costs to the association. Or, consider doing a birthday fundraiser on Facebook for FAEA. This is a great way to celebrate both your special day and FAEA!
