CARFAC Membership

The CARFAC voting membership includes practicing professional artists. The non-voting associate members include students, museums and art galleries, educational institutions, and other individuals and institutions with an interest in the visual arts.

To define a professional artist, CARFAC employs the definition created by the International Artists Association (IAA) that defines a "professional artist" as one who fulfills at least one of the following criteria:

  • earns a living through art making
  • possesses a diploma in an area considered to be within the domain of the fine arts
  • teaches art in a school of art or applied art
  • whose work is often seen by the public or is frequently or regularly exhibited
  • is recognized as an artist by consensus of opinion among professional artists.

Famous quotes containing the word membership:

    The two real political parties in America are the Winners and the Losers. The people don’t acknowledge this. They claim membership in two imaginary parties, the Republicans and the Democrats, instead.
