Our Mission
The Northern Liberties Arts Association is an independent non-profit organization that exists to ensure that the presence of art and artists will continue to enrich and define the historic neighborhood of Northern Liberties.

Founded in 2000 by residents Todd Kimmell, Heather Marshall, Kevin Mullavey, and Sue White, the NLAA hopes to educate local artists about buying property and utilizing each other as resources as a means to secure their way of life in the neighborhood.
Current Events

NLAA had its first meeting March 16, 2000 and plans to hold regular monthly meetings. Our first public event was a Real Estate Seminar for Artists, and we had a great turnout for our Thanksgiving Eve screening of the rarely seen 1968 film "Candy."

Some of our ongoing and future activities include:
Business and Real Estate Seminars for Artists
Topics include: researching property, financing options, dealing sensibly with mortgage companies, banks and realtors.

Exhibition and Networking Opportunities
Opportunities for artists to showcase their spaces and their artwork, to network and socialize with other artists, meet collectors and to develop relationships with their neighbors.
