Welcome
The Brandon League of Fine Arts (BLFA) has been serving the Greater Brandon, Florida community since 1959. Brandon League of Fine Arts is the perfect organization for artists and lovers of art who want to help promote and advocate for the arts. Artists of all skill levels, styles and mediums are welcome.
​​
The next BLFA Members Meeting is Monday, January 19, 2026 at 6:30 pm at Creative Junk Therapy. Visitors are always welcome!
​
This month’s meeting will feature
Word Play
January’s meeting activity will be Word Play. Participants will pull a word from a hat and create their interpretation of that word in their own medium. It can be anything from drawing to sculpting or anything in between. We will share our artwork at the end of the meeting.
All attendees are encouraged to bring a medium and paper or sketchbook of their choice.

President’s Message
Go listen to Joe Jackson’s “Steppin’ Out.” The song becomes routine and comfortable to do the same thing day in and day out. Too comfortable.
​
Everybody knows the story that as you get older, time seems to zip by faster. There’s a theory that it feels that way because as youngsters, there is a new thing every day to see and explore. The years pile on and it all becomes a predictable, regimented schedule. The same old thing runs like a familiar movie set on fast forward.
​
Since participating in our League events and art outings, my life experiences have become a brisk, enjoyable, scenic stroll rather than a frantic dash down a generic, soul-less interstate. So come draw, paint, scribble, or just take amazing pics when we meet up for our outing adventures! The company is pleasantly full of laughter and worth any short trip...
​
“We’ll leave the TV and the radio behind, don’t you wonder what we’ll find.” Who knows, it may add some extra time on your life, or at least turn it to youngster speed.
