Because of Covid, Merrill has had an appointment only policy for its customers, and we have not had intake there in almost 2 years. This venue will be on hold until further notice.
- Many of our artists have websites linked to the LAA website that showcase their work. This is a complimentary feature of LAA membership. Click here to see our featured artists or email Marie Tomlinson at inkstresse@gmail.com if you want to include your website on the LAA site!
