The Sharptop Arts Association
is a non-profit organization created to stimulate and
encourage art appreciation and development of the arts
and crafts.
Through classes, workshops,
exhibits and cultural events, the Association strives
to provide a balanced program of art opportunities for
all the people of Pickens County and the extended community.
Art Classes and Workshops
are held at the Quinton Art Center in downtown Jasper,
Georgia - including sculpture, pottery, painting, basket
weaving, ceramics and yoga, to name a few.
Exhibitions feature a
variety of artists and media. Each exhibition has an
opening night reception to meet the artists. Artwork
is generally on display, with most items for sale, for
an extended period of time.
Our Annual Children and
Youth Art Show displays more than 400 pieces created
by our Pickens County young people.
Marble Festival Fine Arts
Exhibition - The Association organizes and orchestrates
the Fine Arts Exhibition held during the Annual Marble
Festival each year in the fall.
The Association functions
with an entirely volunteer effort. We are guided by
a Board of Directors and an active network of committees
focusing on different aspects of the Association. We
are very excited about the future direction of the Association
and hope you will join us in our enthusiasm and consider
being a part of the process. We welcome your creativity
and support and hope you will become an active member.
Please be sure
to check out the News page for the latest postings of
upcoming events.
