The Visual Arts Program & Gallery invites you to become a central force for innovation in contemporary art at Emory and within the greater Atlanta region by joining the Friends of Visual Arts. This diverse group of artists, art professionals, and art lovers supports the gallery exhibitions, artist residencies, lectures, and special events that supplement our studio art curriculum.

Benefits include discounts at local restaurants and art supply stores and invitations to two exclusive Friends events per year.

Whether you are renewing your current membership or joining for the first time, we look forward to welcoming you to the Friends of Visual Arts. Together we can accomplish great things!

Special Friends Event Each Semester

Each semester we offer a special event exclusively for our Friends, featuring dinner, live music, and a provocative speaker about the current gallery exhibition. Find out why one of our members called the Fall 2007 Friends Soiree, in conjunction with the exhibition The Missing Peace: Artists Consider the Dalai Lama, “the most interesting art event I’ve attended this year!”
