The HSEAD Annual Spring Meeting will be held May 13-15 at the Holiday Inn Albany Hotel and Convention Center. The picturesque Albany area is well known as the setting of some of the best known American 19th century paintings.

Educational sessions are interspersed with social activities.
The HSEAD Spring Meetings attract members and friends from far and wide. The accompanying Annual Exhibition, which is open to the public, features prized original Early American painted pieces. Also on view are award winning works produced by the most accomplished HSEAD painters. In addition new guild members display their applicant pieces that have been judged acceptable using the most rigorous standards required for HSEAD membership.
