About the Birmingham Art Alliance

The Birmingham Art Alliance is a new organization dedicated to celebrating and promoting the vibrant and diverse artistic landscape of Birmingham, Alabama. We welcome artists and makers of all mediums to connect, collaborate, and share their creative voices with the community.

We are excited to host a pop-up shared showroom, located next to Forstall Art Center at 219 20th Street North.

The annual membership fee for the BAA is $75. This membership fee guarantees inclusion in at least one group show annually (members still must apply for shows.) The fee is currently going towards paying rent, and will go towards other necessities in the future. Instead of paying membership fees to the Birmingham Art Alliance Venmo, members will Venmo (@Andy-Forstall) and Andy will transfer the fees to the BAA account. We're doing this to avoid the 1.9% + $0.10 fee per transaction. This membership also includes a 25% discount on retail art supplies at Forstall Art Center (exceptions and exclusions apply.)

Please email any questions to bhamartalliance@gmail.com.
