Upcoming Events

Show your pride and help our cause by making a suggested charitable donation to the NCAEA Emeritus Support Fund. It is never too late to get your additional magnets and decals for the upcoming gift giving season or know that we have available some support to give to art programs destroyed by natural disasters.  Areas we have sent contributions to are Kentucky (tornado), Hawaii and California (wildfires), and several in North Carolina (floods).  We are near $800 now and hope to get to $1,000 by 2026. There is a suggested donation of $10 each and postage is about $1.50. Thank you to the artists of our division who have made it possible.  Where else can you get art from such notable artists? 

Suggested donation of $10 for our 4”x7” magnets. We are accepting Venmo payments so email  planning@ncaea.org  your email address and I’ll give you info you need to make your donation. I then can mail you your merchandise.   ~Marylu Flowers-Schoen
