Welcome to the
Vinton Guild of Fine Arts

The Vinton Guild of Fine Arts (VGFA) is a nonprofit organization that was established to support the visual fine arts and artists in Vinton and our nearby communities.  We are engaged in a wide variety of activities, including murals and other public art installations; art classes, contests, and exhibits; member field trips and fun nights, participatory art activities in the community, and partnering with other local organizations to support and promote the fine arts in the area.  Whether you are a patron of the arts, a professional artist, or a hobbyist, we would love to hear from you!

New Mural Project 
Plans are underway for a new "Community Mural" for the downtown area.  A design has been selected, depicting Riverside Park then (100 years ago) and now.  Prep is underway now, and in May, community members will be invited to paint it.  

See Community Mural page for more info and sign up to paint!
