About Us
Who We Are
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.
