History of WAAA
Wilson Active Artist Association is a long loved artistic organization that has been established in Wilson, North Carolina since 1965.
WAAA was founded by a group of eight Wilsonians that despite their differences from everyday life and work, they had one big theme in common, ART. This group gathered for the first time in April of 1965 due to their love for the arts and to formally discuss the founding of this organization with the mission to help promote an interest in art in Wilson.
