Association of British Botanical Artists (ABBA)
every one – every where – every ability
The Association of British Botanical Artists is a charitable, inclusive, umbrella organisation established to facilitate strong links between botanical artists and individuals with a passion for plants.
- a focus on scientifically accurate botanical art often with an artistic element influenced by the medium
- an organisation open to all with no prerequisites for membership
- offer members access to a Local Champion and collaborative tools to help identify local, like minded groups and individuals with whom they can engage formally or informally
- direct members to existing resources that focus on botanical art and foster relationships with organisations that offer information on plant identification and plant ecology to promote a wider knowledge and enjoyment of the plant kingdom
- collaborate with members to raise funds and promote and exhibit their work, at local regional and national levels
- coordinate a triennial conference and juried national exhibition bringing together work from local and regional centres in one central, accessible venue
