Art Association Meetings

The Covered Bridge Art Association membership holds monthly meetings on the first Tuesday of the month at 6:00 p.m. Current Active members are invited to attend our business meeting.

Annual Events and Special Shows

Parke County Maple Fair is held annually on the last weekend of February and first weekend of March. This fair celebrates the coming spring and the production of maple syrup throughout the county! Association members 
hold booths displaying their artwork in the 4-H Building at the Parke County Fairgrounds along with other county displays selling maple syrup.

Abstract April Show!  Now in its third year, this show is building momentum! We draw artists from the greater Wabash Valley covering many surrounding counties. Abstract April celebrates the creativity of artists thinking outside the box! These pieces of art may be totally non-representational mixtures of color and design or they may be objects in creative, colorful impressionistic styles that engage the viewer and encourage imagination! Don't miss this fun show! Look for our entry information in February and March and the show during the month of April!

The Fall Open Class Show is open to all artists in the greater Wabash Valley. This is a Juried show held in each year in September. This show is sure to bring out the best work from everyone as we compete for recognition in 3-D categories of pottery, weaving, jewelry design, and collage. Painting selections showcase artwork in oil, acrylic, watercolor, colored pencil, pencil, and photography. Attend our closing reception to meet the artists and judge and vote for favorites!

The Covered Bridge Festival is held beginning the second Friday of October through the following weekend. This ten-day festival is the highlight of the Art Association year when membership will produce and display their best artwork for sale to visitors from all across the country. Stop in to see our extensive collection during the Bridge Festival and enjoy live painting demonstrations by our members.

Holiday Tour of Homes has been suspended due to Covid. We hope to hold this event again in 2024 as it is a popular event! It is sponsored by the Art Association on the first Saturday of December and showcases five homes in the county. These homes are decorated for the Christmas Holiday by the owners and county merchants and are sure to inspire your decorating whims! Tickets will be on sale at the Art Gallery up to a week in advance.
