LETTER FROM THE KMAA PRESIDENT
My Fellow KMAA Members,
Happy Fall!
A heartfelt shout-out to all KMAA members who participated in our current Healing Hallways of Art display at Northern Westchester Hospital, which opened on October 21. Your generosity and creativity will undoubtedly brighten the days of hospital patients, visitors, and staff. If you haven’t yet participated in this special initiative, we invite you to join us for the next installation in October 2026.
A special thank-you to our dedicated KMAA volunteers who help manage this important exhibition, and to our NWH partner, Luda Samuels, whose collaboration helps bring this meaningful program to life.
We’re thrilled to announce a new opportunity that expands the KMAA’s presence within our local medical community. The KMAA Advisory Board is honored to exhibit member artworks at Westchester Dermatology & Mohs Surgery Center in Mt. Kisco. With exhibitions rotating biannually, patients, visitors, and staff of this premier medical facility will enjoy and be inspired by the creativity of our talented KMAA Board members. Our heartfelt thanks to Dr. Athena Kaporis for her partnership, to Practice Manager Elaine Silva for coordinating this collaboration, and to the entire Westchester Dermatology team for so warmly welcoming our artwork into your space.
We were also thrilled to launch another installment of our Meet Me Program on October 22 at the Seven Bridges Foundation in Greenwich. The breadth and depth of artwork — both indoors and out — are truly remarkable, complemented by stunning architecture and landscape design. A sincere thank-you to our gracious host who manages the entire operation at Seven Bridges, Jamie DiMiceli, for providing such a rich and inspiring KMAA-exclusive experience.
Next up, we’re excited to present Digital Infinity, a juried exhibition at the Katonah Village Library running November 2–28, 2025. Congratulations to all artists who submitted work, and especially to those accepted! We extend our gratitude to juror Rem Ribeiro of the Neuberger Museum, whose expertise will guide both the exhibition installation and the Artist Talk on November 22 from 3:00–4:30 PM, featuring artists Amy F. Kupferberg, David L. Hutchinson, and Allyson Montana. Please join us for the Opening Reception on November 6 from 6:00–7:30 PM.
We’re also thrilled to announce a new partnership with our neighbors at The Harvey School in Katonah, which recently completed a beautiful new Barn space for community events. The KMAA will host an information table and offer creative activities during Homecoming on Saturday, October 25, 2025, from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM. The event is open to the public, so stop by our tent to say hello and enjoy the festivities, food, and fun! More details about future collaborations with The Harvey School will be shared soon.
Looking ahead, we’re finalizing plans for our annual Holiday Party (details to come) and developing new interactive programs for our members this winter. In the spring, mark your calendars for the KMAA All-Member Exhibition, running March 13–April 7, 2026, at Bethany Arts Community in Ossining, NY. We’re excited to once again showcase sculpture and other 3D works by our talented members.

OUR MISSION STATEMENT
It is the Mission of the Katonah Museum Artists’ Association (KMAA) to develop and enhance an artistic community by providing exhibition opportunities, educational programs, and venues for networking while supporting the activities and exhibitions of the Katonah Museum of Art (KMA).

SUBMISSION FAQS: PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
PRIOR TO ENTERING KMAA EXHIBITIONS
Below is a list of pertinent Qs & As for KMAA members interested to submit their work into any of our exhibitions. These policies must be adhered to or your work will not be considered for an exhibition.
Please do not contact the Katonah Museum of Art or an exhibition venue when considering submitting your work and when you have questions regarding drop-off and pick-up of your work for any of our shows. Contact us directly at info@artists-kmaa.com.
Q. Can I remove artwork early, before the show is over?
A. No. Artwork must remain in the exhibition for the duration of a show and can only be removed at the specified times when KMAA volunteers are scheduled to be onsite to manage the process. There are no exceptions. Please consider this before entering one of our exhibitions.
Q. What if I am unable to drop-off or pick-up my work on the specified timeframe and location for a given show?
A. Due to the size of our Association and the logistics that we arrange with our venues, and our volunteers months in advance of a show, it is not possible for us to make an exception if you are unable to drop-off or pick-up your work at a given venue outside of the scheduled date, procedures and timeframe. We recommend that you make arrangements with a friend, family member or representative to drop-off and pick-up your work, on your behalf, if you are personally unable to do this, in person, yourself. In addition, the venues we contract with are not authorized to accept or remove any works on your behalf and failure to comply will result in not having you enter our exhibitions. Please consider this before entering one of our exhibitions.
Q. Can I edit details of my work in Submittable once it is submitted?
A. Yes. You may request us to open your submission for editing during the specified entry dates. We will not accept any edit requests or make any changes to your submission, following the close of an entry period.
Q. I accidentally unsubscribed to the KMAA eblasts and do not receive exhibition notifications, etc. What can I do to re-subscribe?
A. Send an email to us at info@artists-kmaa.com to opt back in to our eblasts and we will, in turn, send you an email to re-subscribe, from Constant Contact. Please do NOT contact the Katonah Museum of Art to re-subscribe. Note: only one re-subscribe email is permitted per individual. Please do not delete it.
Q. Is there any need to send in my actual pieces of artwork to the KMAA for an Online Exhibition?
A. No. There is no need to arrange for drop-off or pick-up of your work for an Online Gallery exhibition. We use the images that you supply in your entry on Submittable. A link to enter an Online Gallery exhibition will be emailed to current KMAA members prior to the start of an entry period. Be sure to check your inbox for the latest KMAA eblast via Constant Contact.
Q. How important is the clarity and quality of the images I submit when entering an exhibition?
A. Extremely important. In all and especially in juried shows, images supplied by you will be the ones that people see, may be used for promotion and uploaded into our Online Gallery. If an image is unclear, i.e., blurry, shows reflections, is poorly photographed, your work, no matter how brilliant it is, may not be clear enough to be evaluated by a juror or appreciated by the public. Images that you supply on Submittable, upon entering a show, must also be formatted to our specs, as described in a Prospectus.
Q. Do I have to be a KMAA member to be considered into your exhibitions?
A. Yes. Only the work of CURRENT KMAA members will be considered for any of our exhibitions, online and in-person. It is the responsibility of the participating artist to verify and maintain current membership status. In the event that your membership has expired at the time your work is dropped off for a given exhibition, your work will be rejected pending that you rejoin KMA/KMAA and provide proof, your receipt, to our volunteers at the time of drop off.
Q. When entering an exhibition, how important is it to correctly spell work titles, mediums, etc., and to provide a functioning website (URL) link where people can view my artwork?
A. Extremely important. KMAA uses the text that you provide. All work details and your own artist information should all be checked for accuracy prior to submitting your work to any of our exhibitions. Any link (URL) of a website and email address that you provide is what will be used in promoting your work. If anything is misspelled or if links are broken, viewers may not be able to find you on the web to learn more about your work.
Q. Can I submit multiple entries for a given Online Gallery exhibition?
A. No. Only ONE entry, per artist, per exhibition will be considered.
