THE ENCAUSTIC ART INSTITUTE
Come see the largest collection of encaustic/wax work in the nation!
The Encaustic Art Institute – a 501c3 – is celebrating its 19th year in operation. We feel fortunate that we have remained on the leading edge of encaustic/wax art for artists and patrons alike. Please take time to shop online – supporting the artists and their creative endeavors. Creativity is the lifeblood during these times and sales help steady the financial foundations to many.
The Encaustic Art Institute has under its umbrella:
- The Museum of Encaustic Art (MOEART.org), with over 450 works of art in its permanent collection. There are currently 124 pieces of encaustic/wax artwork showing on rotation in its New Mexico location. Click here to view the permanent collection online.
