We are
a 501(c) (3) nonprofit art education organization founded in 1978 with the mission to bring an appreciation of art and the creative process to all people. We provide opportunities for creative growth through our extensive programs of interactive tours, hands-on art classes, and community outreach.
80% of our programming is outreach with groups that typically receive little or no art education. We work with schools, senior residences and nursing homes, individuals with special needs, and many others.
More about outreach...
We created our programs for the general public for those interested in enriching their knowledge, or perhaps seeking others who share their passion. These programs include: Gallery Walks,"Expanding Visions," Travel Program, Art Classes for Adults and Kids.
