A Note From the Executive Director

It is an honor to announce that on September 1, 2008, the Carlisle Art Association will merge with the Carlisle Arts Learning Center.

The Carlisle Art Association (CAA) began in the 1960’s when Erston Barnhart organized a group of artists to display artwork and to promote the visual arts in Carlisle. The group grew throughout the years and coordinated many shows, organized the Carlisle Art Walks, taught art and awarded scholarships to students continuing their education in the arts. Carlisle has been fortunate to have CAA’s passion for the visual arts within its community.

The merger will bring the arts under one roof in Carlisle while increasing the "arts energy" in our community. It is an exciting time!
