The Hamden Art League (HAL) promotes the visual arts in Hamden and throughout Connecticut. HAL, which has been in existence for over fifty years, holds monthly presentations by well-known artists who demonstrate their art in a wide array of media. Twice a year, HAL holds exhibitions of the work of members and nonmembers. A monthly newsletter, this website and Facebook publicize the upcoming presentations and the shows and accomplishments of members. HAL membership includes practicing artists and beginners, and is open to anyone who would like to be a part of our visual art community.

In Memoriam
Plein Air Show 2020
While COVID-19 has kept HAL members and friends from having indoor art exhibitions, it has not kept us from painting. A number of us have been meeting once a week - wearing masks and social distancing - to paint outside. Candace Klein has found scenic places, from parks to farms to a private home, where we could pick from multiple vistas for inspiration. Our plein air show demonstrates the variety of the sites and how original the artists’ interpretations of them are. We will continue to paint en plein air as long as the weather allows.
We hope you enjoy our show.
