With the goals of promoting the appreciation of and commitment to the visual arts, as well as exploring new avenues of life-long learning, members of TFVA are encouraged to enjoy hundreds of activities in all aspects of painting, sculpture, photography, performance art, digital, video, new media, mixed media art and more. All of our varied learning opportunities are organized by volunteers, with advisors drawn from academia, publishing, galleries and museums.

Members may participate in gallery walks, tour museum exhibitions with a curator, attend lectures and films on a wide variety of artistic subjects, visit private collections in residences, view corporate collections, engage with artists during studio visits and socialize with colleagues. Annually, TFVA announces our newest prize recipients and celebrates  their achievements  through public presentations and the media. On-going recognition occurs through TFVA’s monthly newsletter and regular social media posts on Instagram.   @tfva.ca
