The Muddy Creek Artists Guild is a roving band of intrepid artists and supporters whose mission is to take responsibility for encouraging, supporting and promoting original art of southern AnneArundelCounty artists.
The focus of the Guild is to show and sell local artwork throughout the greater SouthCounty area in Maryland while also educating our members and the public about our art, and contributing to the quality of life in South County.
Towards that end, the Guild usually hosts three shows annually when a temporary "gallery" is installed at a South County location. Guild members have the option of participating in our various open, juried and thematic shows include original works from our members (over 100 artists) in a wide range of media: paintings, textiles, jewelry, clay works, sculpture, photography, pottery, wood and mixed media.
Monthly membership meetings are held to encourage artists to share ideas/inspirations and their talents for upcoming shows and to network with other artists. We also host informal workshops, guest speakers and fun-filled field trips (name tags included!).
