Irving Art Association

IAA is committed to supporting year round art appreciation and educational opportunities. The schedule includes 22 curated gallery exhibits, professional artist demonstrations at eight membership meetings from September through May, and over ten workshops by professional artists. The major annual event of the year since 1985 has been sponsorship of the Texas and Neighbors Art Competition featuring artists from Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, and Texas and judged by a nationally known artist. The exhibit is held at the prestigious Irving Arts Center. An annual Wildlife Show provides competition for artists in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
