The Arizona Artists Guild was founded in 1928. AAG continues to be a place for artists of all types to gather together for creative sharing and learning. Many notable artists have come through our doors. Today AAG has over 300 active members ranging in artistic experience from the beginner to the retired master.
Arizona Artists Guild continues its tradition of promoting excellence in the arts in all media. Our members' artwork runs the gamut: with some steeped in tradition while others explore the contemporary techniques of this digital era; from figurative to non-objective. Our workshops, programs and exhibitions convey this diversity.
"If you take the colors of Vincent Van Gogh and the faith of William Blake, add the loose, abstract freedom of Vassily Kandinsky, and spread the results liberally on canvas you would have painting by Wahid Nahle. This brilliant young painter produces an intuitive, positive art Filled with celebration of life and hope. The viewer, swimming in color, energy and mystery of his message is lifted by cosmic forces to a higher level of feeling, understanding and joy."
