Ah Haa ArtAbout

Ah Haa School for the Arts brings you ArtAbout, a weekend of creative exploration for the curious who want to celebrate imagination and the beauty of our natural surroundings. ArtAbout is a self-guided tour of artist studios, homes, mines, warehouses, camps, shacks, garages, co-ops, and outdoor places where art is made.

ArtAbout’s goal is to create connections with our creative community.
