The Janesville Art League is an active non-profit organization open to artists and art supporters to create and enjoy art in our community.
The Janesville Art League was established in 1894. Our purposes are to further community interest in art, develop appreciation and recognition of artists, and to view, study, display, collect and conserve art works. The club is open to anyone with a desire to support the arts, and have art enhance their lives. The club maintains a rotating display of members’ art work in the multi-purpose room at the Janesville Performing Arts Center.
