There is no better indicator of the spiritual health of our city, its neighborhoods, and the larger region than the state of the arts.
The arts deepen our understanding of the human spirit, extend our capacity to comprehend the lives of others, allow us to imagine a more just and humane world.
Through their diversity of feeling, their variety
of form, their multiplicity of inspiration, the arts make our culture richer and more reflective.
Jonathan Fanton, President, MacArthur Foundation

The art league was started by a group of about six peopte, including Peart Archer, Florence Dye, Marilyn Glover, Gail Hensen, Rachael Miller and Ann Wildman. They started meeting in their homes and later moved those meetings to the Westerville Public Library, where the art league still meets today.
Gallery 202 is looking for artists of all mediums
to help create a new web database of local artists and venues just for Westerville. We are rich in the arts in Westerville,
so let's tell the world that we are the creative cultural community.
We have basic information on the following
website: www.artswesterville.com and are looking for more ideas on how to spread the word about our own artists,
venues, classes, workshops and more.
