HAS Nov 2024 Art Show & Sale
Sat & Sun November 2-3, 2024 10-4 pm
We are celebrating our 17th year at Hollis Arts Society and gearing up for our annual HAS 2024 Art Show & Sale. Our members have been prepping throughout the year in hopes of record Art Sales. Our Artists create a wide range of products, perfect for large or small gifts for the holidays. Our artists range from seasoned professionals, to Students. HAS offers our members the opportunity to put a display booth together and work their sales pitches in a supportive community setting. We are so grateful for the amazing community interest and to see our yearly sales increase over the last few years. It’s a gift to see the pride on our Artist’s faces when they make their first sale…or any sale for that matter.
Join us if you can. It’s a fun weekend for us to share our art work with the public and connect with our fellow artists. Hope to see you there!

Seeking Member Participation!!
We know you love showing your work and artists are often introverts but we’d love to see you at our meetings, hear what you have to say, and maybe get some help from you too. We have a small group of members working hard handling 2+ volunteer positions to keep HAS running but we’d love your help!!
Participation provides social time with other artists. Get inspired and see what others are doing.
