The Covered Bridge Art Association Celebrated Our 50th Anniversary!June 2015 marked 50 years for The Covered Bridge Art Association and 30 years in our historic downtown 3 story building, now our Gallery. Celebrations began in May with our annual Active Member's Spring Show as we honored our Founding Member Louise Michael. Her vision and the interest of many local artists founded our association that has encouraged art appreciation, art education, and the art experience for all Parke County citizens and visitors.
