Fostering Creativity & Appreciation for the Arts in the Gateway East Community

Join GEAG

Gateway East Artists Guild is a non-profit organization of artists and art enthusiasts working to encourage self-expression through the visual arts, and to foster awareness, appreciation, and artistic development through educational programs throughout the Metro-East community. 

GEAG members are from a wide variety of artistic backgrounds and skill levels. From professional, nationally recognized artists, to those just starting out or those who appreciate and support the arts, GEAG has something to offer.
Visit us at our next monthly meeting, the first Wednesday of each month at the SWIC PSOP building at 201 N. Church St in Belleville, IL.

GEAG Members in Action

I am asking all artists to help compile a list of local and online resources to create a free digital and physical resource list to be placed on the GEAG website and available at meetings. Any information you’d like to help grow this list will be helpful, and can include any cities/areas within a 100-mile radius of Belleville. If you do provide information, please give a small, detailed explanation of how or why this is beneficial for artists.  Feel free to contact me at @nocturnalveilart on Instagram or Facebook, or email me at nocturnalveilart@gmail.com. I appreciate any resources provided.
