The North Shore Artists League invites you to our Annual Conference - a day of connection, creativity and inspiration for artists across the North Shore.
This year’s keynote speaker is Kelly Schamberger, a highly acclaimed and award-winning landscape painter whose work has appeared at Sotheby’s New York, the Minneapolis Institute of Art, and her art was selected for inclusion in the Lunar Codex time capsule placed on the moon by the Odysseus Lander in February 2024. Her address will offer powerful insight into the life and process of a professional artist.
