THELMA Visual Artists (TVA) is a collective of local artists promoting Thelma’s mission of enriching our community through the arts while advancing personal and professional development.

Memberships at Thelma Sadoff Center for the Arts is a great way to get the most out of everything THELMA has to offer, all while making a big impact on the arts in Fond du Lac! THELMA members help make the arts accessible to those in the Fond du Lac area.
