The organization continues the tradition of offering shows, demonstrations and workshops for its members. There are prestigious Annual Juried Shows held at the Bergamot Station and other galleries. Several times a year, MAA produces “Montmartre in Malibu", an informal plein aire show, at various locations around Malibu. Our Art in Public Places program offers members the privilege to display their art at many public and private venues throughout Malibu.

MAA holds monthly meetings on the fourth Thursday of each month, September through June, from 7:00 PM to 9:30 PM at the Michael Landon Center located at Malibu Canyon Road and Pacific Coast Highway. (Meetings are held on the third Thursday of the month when the fourth Thursday falls on a major holiday.) Most meetings feature an art professional as demonstrator or presenter, occasionally followed by a workshop.

MAA awards scholarships to graduating high school seniors with plans to continue their education in the fields of art or design. These scholarships are partly financed by donations from members of 15% of their artwork sales made through MAA sponsored events. The association also donates art books and videotapes to the Malibu Public Library and provides art supplies requested by teachers at Malibu High School.

MAA is a diverse group of artists and patrons who are working to help and encourage all our members in their creative work and to provide financial assistance for future artists in our community. MAA continues to assist artists to realize their full potential and to blend art into the community through our Art in Public Places Program.
