Mission
EAI’s mission is to promote public awareness, understanding, and appreciation of encaustic art. Also, offer space and programs for children and professional encaustic artists, to exchange information and technique for working with wax. And, provide all encaustic artists with a place to display and sell their art on this website and in our permanent gallery, shown here. All sales going 100% back to the artists.
THE GOALS TO ACHIEVE OUR MISSION

• EAI's approach to accepting an artist's work is unique and simple: no one will be turned down (EAI reserves the right and obligation to not accept any racial or sexually explicit work). There are no long forms to fill out, no jury procedures, no slide presentations.
Become a member, then send three pieces of art and up to eight digital versions of your work, along with a short artist statement for our website. We strive to have an on-going relationship with other organizations and we seek other opportunities to showcase our artists' work at local restaurants, offices and other venues.

• We want to include any persons that are interested in encaustic art — art historians, curators, scholars, collectors, art publishers and other visual arts professionals — to become a part of EAI. The more freedom of expression and diversity we have, the more we will grow and become successful.
