About Us:

In 2001, Kitty Boeddeker, Joe Palermo, David Cox, Angel O'Briant and Sally Ahlstedt founded the Henderson Art Association to promote local visual artists.

The Henderson Art Association will be a vital part of the cultural scene of Henderson. The city has a long commitment to the cultural life of its residents. The performing arts are well represented in "Shakespeare in the Park", the Henderson Civic Symphony annual programs of music, dance, theater and children's programs. "Visual arts and performing arts are valued partners in the redevelopment and revitalization of historic downtown Henderson, and the Henderson Art Association is the inaugural participant in it renaissance," Sally Ahlstedt, Assistant Recreation Coordinator, City of Henderson.

The Henderson Art Association is incorporated as a non-profit organization and maintains its goals and integrity by serving local artists and friends of the visual arts. Membership is by jury selection.
