Welcome 2017 and NSAA's 95th Anniversary!


What makes an institution continue to grow and thrive after 95 years?

It's not magic; it only happens because of caring and hard work.

Generations of NSAA artist and associate members, patrons and donors have planned, volunteered, donated and worked to create this association and to ensure its survival. Now it's up to us, the current membership, to guarantee the North Shore Arts Association survives well into its second century. As 2017 opens, we proudly continue our commitment to the theme "Arts in Action-Connecting Communities". The impact that we can make as artists has the potential to reach throughout greater Cape Ann and far beyond. The success or failure of that potential has everything to do with the sense of real community and commitment that each individual member feels to the NSAA and to each other.

The NSAA needs the help of each one of our members. Volunteer! We have a very small, dedicated, and hardworking staff and an effective and committed Board of Trustees. Join a committee; make things happen! Your input and feedback is important and of great value to us all. Let's pull together to be a beneficial force within our community and beyond!

We need researchers, grant writers, people with computer skills, people with ideas and energy! Below are the current committees seeking volunteers. Call Linda Cote, or email arts@nsarts.org; fill out and return the volunteer questionaire with your dues payment-every little bit is a great help. Grab a rope and PULL!
