About Us

We embrace, promote, and nourish 

the arts in our community.

 All art lovers are welcome and encouraged to join our group!

Oshkosh Fine Arts Association, OFAA, promotes the arts in the Oshkosh area community. We welcome individual artists and people with an interest and love for the arts. You do not have to be a working artist to become a member. We invite you to visit or join our group of people who are enthusiastic and dedicated to the arts.

We are a non-profit community art group. In the past we had held an art fair for 60 years and more recently a Plein Air painting festival. 

We also have a community art day at the 

Downtown Oshkosh Farmers Market.

We hold several art workshops per year in a variety of media.

Check out our latest activities and member art on our Facebook page.

OFAA is holding a WI Regional Arts Program (WRAP) pop-up show on Sat. April 12 at The Waters. 

Artists from around the area, not limited to OFAA members, will be exhibiting their work. The artists will be available to meet and chat with visitors and many works of art will be available to purchase.
