The Berrien Artist Guild, Inc. was founded in 1962 by a group of local artists to provide a forum for learning, working and growing together. In 1995 the Guild bought the historic Williams Bros. Paper Box Factory. With help from the state of Michigan, local foundations, and many individuals, the enormous task was begun of converting the factory into today's Box Factory for the Arts, a multi-use arts center.
We support all the arts as well as arts advocates. Basic levels of membership include individual ($30), student ($15) and family ($45).

We survive and thrive on the work of our volunteers who serve at the reception desk, host opening receptions, curate gallery exhibits, help keep the building presentable, and in many more supporting roles. Let us know when you are available and we'll find a job for you.
