Our Committees
The Upstate Artists Guild includes ten committees which help with the organization and administration of day-to-day tasks. The main purpose of these committees is to allow for the appointment of caretakers to our various interests and activities. Committees are run by members of the board but the work remains shared across all of the Guild as volunteers are always welcomed.

Foundation Committees
+ Workshop Committee
The Workshop Committee is responsible for the organization and administration of various workshops and classes. Teaching and Learning are both key to our mission and, as such, the Workshop Committee remains one of the UAG's most active and prolific committees. The Workshop Committee is also responsible for interns and internship opportunities. You can find more on the Workshop Committee's offerings on our Teach and Learn pages.
