Welcome
Celebrating 72 Years of Fine Art and Friendship
Message from President Lee Asta
Many of us grew up hearing that in school, we would be learning the “3-R’s”, which stood for: reading, ‘riting and ‘rithmetic”!

Your President,
Lee Asta

The Ocala Art Group was established in Ocala in 1950, making our organization the oldest of its kind in Central Florida. The artists have come and gone through the years, but the quality of the work and the enthusiasm of our members insure that the arts remain alive and healthy, no matter the economic climate.
The Ocala Art Group is a not-for-profit educational corporation and our membership is open to all who share an interest in developing and promoting fine art. We provide programs, demonstrations and workshops that appeal to every art enthusiast, and we sponsor at least four art shows a year with all member participation.
