Who We Are
The Society of Creative Arts
of Newtown, Inc. (SCAN) is a non-profit association of artists from Western
Connecticut and surrounding areas. Our goal is to support the artist and
promote the visual arts.
For over 40 years, SCAN
members - artists of all skill levels and art enthusiasts - have
been sharing knowledge of a variety of media, including watercolor, oil,
acrylic, pastel, graphics, mixed media, and sculpture.
Our
activities include:
●
Twice-monthly demonstration meetings
featuring professional artists
●
Classes & Workshops with practicing artists
●
Informal “drop in” sketch
sessions with models
and other educational
opportunities
●
An Open Studio for members'
individual or group activities
●
Several art shows each year
●
Annual trip in Spring to visit the American Watercolor Society Show
as well as Chelsea and SoHo in
New York City
Each month we publish SCAN
INK, a newsletter for our members, which provides complete details about our
programs. Members also receive several exclusive benefits detailed on our
membership page.
We meet in the historic
Newtown Meeting House on
Main Street at the Flag Pole (Route 25).
