The Grace Lai Memorial Fund was established in 2010 after the passing of one of SAN's founding members, Grace Lai. Grace was a well know on site artists in the Chicago area. She was a SAN board member and strong supporter of the arts in the Chicago area. The Grace Lai Memorial Fund supports the SAN Annual Members Show. This exhibition offers each member an opportunity to exhibit one of their works and compete for show prizes. More importantly, this show allows the artists' works to be seen by a large audience. The exhibition demonstrates to the public that older artists are still creative and creating.

Welcome to our temporary web page. It's been 5 years since the last website upgrade. The existing galleries will be temporarily unavailable to members, while we make uploading your artworks easier. We are also upgrading the online entry system for Later Impressions and adding online entries for the Members Show.
Feel free to contact board members with your comments or suggestions
Later Impressions 2012 is tentatively scheduled for late October through November 2012. Details for these show and the prospectuses will be posted approximately 2 months before the exhibitions are scheduled to open, so check back.
Later Impressions is SAN's annual juried art exhibit, usually held at the Chicago Cultural Center in the Renaissance Court Gallery. The show runs for about a month in the Fall, usually around October, and features works by 40-50 artists. This exhibition awards a "Best of Show" cash prize of $500 and several lesser cash prizes. Artists can enter on-line through the SAN Website and are asked to submit up to 3 works for consideration. In this show sculpture can be submitted. An additional fee is charged to enter, with a large discount for SAN members. Prominent member artists such as Curt Frankenstein, Grace Lai, Bill Neebe and Peggy Lipschultz have all exhibited in Later Impressions.
At mid-year SAN hosts an information seminar to keep the membership informed about topic of interest to artists. In the past we tackled how to get artwork on-line, how to photograph and frame your artwork, art opportunities such as the "Pop-Up" Galleries, the Chicago Artists Resource website, and public art initiatives. We also feature artists who share their work or demonstrate innovative art techniques, as well as save time for SAN members to network. The program is usually held in late June or early July at Renaissance Court in the Chicago Cultural Center and is cosponsored by the Chicago Department of Family & Support Services – Senior Services.
