Friends of the American Plains Artists

wonderful venues

Our Exhibit hosts


Quality.  In a word, that describes the various locations across sections of the Plains that the American Plains Artists have had the privilege of showing in.

These wonderful facilities have contributed much to the enjoyment and aesthetics of our National Juried Events and the APA expresses their gratitude for their services.

If you know of a facility that may be interested in hosting an APA event, please  contact us.

The APA thanks all these businesses and individuals past and present in providing materials and value to the awards given in our National Juried Show.

Here are just a few more of our Sponsors whom we’d like to acknowledge:
