The Union of Maine Visual Artists (UMVA) represents visual artists statewide in all fields of endeavor and welcomes those who support contemporary artists in Maine. The UMVA is dedicated to upholding the dignity of artists, while creating positive social change through the arts. By collaborating with other cultural and progressive organizations, we raise awareness for significant issues while promoting an inclusive arts community in Maine. We are grassroots and we are active. We fear no art.
The Union of Maine Visual Artists (UMVA) was founded in 1975 to
create better communication and support among artists and
advocate for artists’ interests and rights
Founding members included Carlo Pittore, Stephen Petroff, Mark Petroff, Natasha Mayers, Abby Shahn, Kathy Bradford, Maury Colton, David Brooks, and Pat Owen. Run by the generosity and commitment of its artist members, the union is a 501(c)3 non-profit, dependent upon membership fees and donations to cover operating expenses. Programs arise from member concerns and are implemented in direct proportion to membership commitment to them.
