What corrales society of artists1 does

The Corrales Society of Artists (CSA) is a federal and state 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Corrales, New Mexico (P.O. Box 3717, Corrales, NM 87048), operating as a collective of over 100 member artists from across New Mexico. The organization was officially formed in 2007 to provide formal structure for the Corrales Art Studio Tour (CAST), which originated in 1998 and has run for 25 years as one of the largest studio tours in the Southwest, hosting over 80 artists, five galleries, and two elementary schools annually. CSA is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors.

CSA's product surface consists of event programs (CAST, Art in the Park, Old Church Fine Arts Show, and Winter Crafts Show), an annual membership program ($60 per artist per calendar year, non-prorated), the Preview Gallery at the historic Old Church, and workshops/educational programming. Members gain voting rights, website presence, and access to all sponsored events. There is no proprietary technology platform; the organization operates a standard WordPress website for membership applications, artist listings, and event information. Distribution extends beyond Corrales through gallery partnerships including Corrales Bosque Gallery, Ghostwolf Gallery (Albuquerque Old Town), and Yucca Art Gallery.

CSA's revenue model is composed of recurring membership dues ($60 per artist annually), one-time event participation/booth fees, and sponsorships from local media and healthcare partners. The go-to-market motion is event-driven: major annual events (CAST, Art in the Park, Old Church Fine Arts Show) serve as both member acquisition mechanisms and primary commercial activity. The organization has been recognized as a participant in New Mexico's Art and Cultural District (ACD) Program since 2018.

Broad incumbents
