Our goal is to increase awareness and appreciation for and through the Arts. CAS welcomes artists from all backgrounds and supports diversity of race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, disability and age.
WELCOME TO CAS!
FEATURED ARTIST Carol Aaron


Artist Statement
I adore the very physicality of building a painting layer by layer. Having my hands on wood, wax and pigment, using fire to meld all that chaos together into a new creation inspires me to rethink my beliefs and reinterpret my relationships to earth and all her beings. I feel as if I am enabled to tell my story by reconfiguring the basic elements of this world.
