Historically, the obstacles preventing artistic talent from coming forth to be recognized have mainly been the expenses, art politics and commercial requirements of exhibits. The National Arts Program® has absolutely proved there is another way.

For 30 years The National Arts Program® has held annual exhibits featuring the art works of employees and their families in more than 450 large and small cities, counties, airports, hospitals and other organizations. What we have found each year is an extraordinary exhibit of artistic talent from "the people." It is truly the indigenous art of America!

The Program is now producing "people's art" at a rate of some 30,000 pieces a year. All these paintings, sculpture, photography, and crafts have been exhibited for the public to see. This has been an immense public relations bonus for the cities, counties and commercial entities as it provides their employees with an opportunity to share a part of their personal lives that we would normally never see. Artists are also now uploading to our website and showcasing their talent.

Would your organization like to host an employee art show? Do you have over 3500 employees? Contact us now, by filling out the 'Join the Program' Form, to see if you qualify.
