Welcome to the
most popular
section of the
BRAA web site.
We're proud of our
member's achievements!
KUDOS is a free service to our members. Posting such good news on their own web sites would easily cost in the hundreds of dollars and hours.
Limitation:
Sorry, we can not list classes or workshops with "for-profit" organizations (not IRS501(c)(3).
Please suggest that the group become a BRAA Merchant-Partner, which will permit them to advertise on our "partner" pages and in kudos (see membership.)
Our aims are to make quality art events affordable, attractive and accessible to our members and the public; and to encourage and support one another while fostering creativity and joyfully exploring the arts.
