WGA History
In February of 1964, local Woburn resident Gene English, sent out a call to all interested artists and craftsman in the Woburn area. They all met at the historic Woburn Public Library and thus formulated The Woburn Guild of Artists.
The Guild's first Art Exhibit was held on the lawn of the Woburn Public Library, in May of 1964.

Student ScholarshipsEach year the Woburn Guild of Artists presents an Annual Scholarship to a deserving Woburn Student from local schools. This scholarship is made possible through the efforts of the Guild's friends, members, and sponsors who donate their money, artwork, or crafts for sale, raffle, or auction, in order to meet our student scholarship goal. The scholarship would not exist without their generosity.
