Ste. Genevieve Art Guild

Art and Ste. Genevieve have been synonymously related since the early 1930's. The charm of the small town along the banks of the Mississippi River appealed to such artists as Aimee Schweig, Jessie Rickly, Thomas Hart Benton, Bernard Peters, Matthew Ziegler, James Audubon and Rosco Misselhorn.

Art continues to thrive in Ste. Genevieve through the Ste. Genevieve Art Guild. Workshops with renowned artists James Godwin Scott, Al Agnew, Charles Rhinehard, Dr. Grant Lund, Doris Flavin, Margaret O'Brien, Marilyn Bradley and other noted artists are sponsored through the guild. The Ste. Genevieve Art Guild supports the fine art programs in the community through children's art shows and an art scholarship program. Artists of the Guild are regularly seen painting within the gardens of historic homes or along the picturesque streets of Ste. Genevieve. Concluding a year of demonstrations, workshops, and outdoor painting, the Guild annually hosts an art show in conjunction with the Ste. Genevieve Christmas Walk. Through the eyes and hands of local artists, art continues to flourish in Ste. Genevieve.

The theme of the 1998 Art Show and Sale is "Hidden Corners." The show will be held at 225 Market Street in Ste. Genevieve on December 5 & 6 from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

The Ste. Genevieve Art Guild meets the fourth Wednesday of each month at 11:30 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. alternating months. The meetings are held in the Patke Room of the County Services Building at 2252 Market Street in Ste. Genevieve, Missouri. Visitors are always welcome. Meetings for the remainder of 1998 are scheduled as follows:

August 26 - 6:30 p.m.  September 23 - 11:30 a.m.
