Berkshire Art Association

We never ask for assistance here, but when we do >>> CANADIAN ROCKSTARS. In other words, if our beloved and always supportive art mafia purchases the remainder of our 10x10 Real Art Party ARTIX by 5 o’clock today, our VP of Marketing & PR will wear a “I ?? Nickelback” T-shirt. In public. For a whole week. If that’s not suffering for art, then we don’t know on God’s green earth what is. Please smash the link below to obtain the ARTIX and learn the where, when and why for this Thursday’s legendary BAA event at the Clocktower Business Center. https://lnkd.in/eFhFfvYN As always, the BAA is forever grateful to our cultural community, which continues to support us in every way imaginable! See you at the show! ??? ?????? #BerkshireArtAssociation #NonProfits #CulturalPittsfield #BerkshireArtists #ArtStudentSupport #GrantGiving #FieldTripFinancing

I have a mind to join a club and beat you over the head with it – Groucho Marx In other words, we finally took enough advice beatings from colleagues telling us to Link up - and so here we are! In other words, The Berkshire Art Association is happier than a Corgi on stilts to be on LinkedIn and would love (and appreciate!) if our cultural Link veterans gave us a follow so we can keep you up to date with our past, current and future shows and shenanigans. And we would not hate it if you recommended us to others that would benefit from having our content chilling in their social feeds. The BAA may be 75 years old, but we’re still excited to develop new big boy (and girl!) creative, business and philanthropic muscles on social media’s most celebrated platform. We’re also looking forward to making new connections and forming partnerships from various backgrounds locally, regionally, nationally and globally! Lastly, the BAA is eternally grateful to our local art mafia, businesses and educational institutions who continue to support us every year at every event and in every way imaginable! See you at the next show! ??? ??? ???? ?? ???? #berkshireartassociation #nonprofits #cultural #creative #collaboration
