Art 31 in March at The Art & History Museums – Maitland



The Art & History Museums – Maitland (A&H) is doing a month-long series of loosely-related art events called Art 31 March 1-31. All programs take place at the A&H’s Maitland Art Center, 231 W. Packwood Avenue, Maitland. Some events are ticketed.

The artists taking part in Art31 are respected worldwide for their compelling approach, and will be producing exciting, original projects. Guests interact with these artists to create unique & dynamic works of art; and experience a vast array of artistic expression.

“Art31 is a month-long dose of experimental and collaborative art,” says Andrea Bailey Cox, A&H Executive Director/CEO. “Just when you think you may have had enough, you will want to come back for more. We challenge you to engage for all 31 days.”
