Workshop Director

We are looking for new locations and organizers for our popular uninstructed life drawing sessions and workshops. Workshop Director job description HERE.

If you have any leads for us to follow-up, please let us know at oshawa.art.association@gmail.com , but sadly, for now, they are on hold.

We are looking at forming a new Events Committee

This committee will work with our Events Coordinator to plan, organize, and support OAA events throughout the year. Whether you love brainstorming creative ideas, coordinating logistics, or pitching in on event days, this is a great way to be part of the excitement and help bring art to our community.

Oshawa Holiday Window Walk

Oshawa Tourism has partnered with the Oshawa Art Association to create a new downtown holiday window display series for the 2025 season. Local artists have painted festive, white-on-white designs on business and vacant storefront windows. The "Oshawa Holiday Window Walk" will debut at the Bright and Merry Market on November 14. See OAA member windows HERE.
