About DAA

Founded in 2019, we’re a 501(c)3 nonprofit dedicated to bringing artists and art lovers together in Dahlonega & Lumpkin County, Georgia. Whether you’re Picasso or you’re picking up a brush for the first time, you’re welcome here.

We love all of the Arts—from visual mediums to the performing arts and everything in between.

We show that by creating access to the Arts through our events, providing opportunities for connection and growth, and through giving and service to our community. And we strive to become a little better every single day.

Sound like you? Join us and become a part of a thriving community that wants to share the joys of the Arts with everyone.
