A regional arts organization dedicated to enriching lives by promoting the enjoyment and understanding of the arts, serving the Grand Valley for over 50 years with classes, exhibitions, events, and educational programs including summer camps.
A week exploring how art movements relate to everyday life, where Cubism meets pixel art and Minecraft. Kids make clay bowls, recycled steampunk bugs, abstract nature art, plein-air paintings, wearable art, and space-inspired pastels.
A STEAM-themed week of hands-on projects including hot rock art, an egg drop, flip books, building a small house, catapult bowling, large bubbles, NASA-based projects, and decorative cardboard solar ovens while refining drawing and painting.
Themed around seeing and caring for our world: campers create art journals, grass-growing sculptures, suncatchers, rock art, animal collages, bird feeders, and an Andy Goldsworthy project using colored pencil, watercolor, and oil pastels.
Young artists design and build their own worlds through drawing and painting, from faraway planets to underwater cities to their own superhero, learning color, composition, and storytelling with watercolor, acrylic, pastels, and markers.
Campers explore places like the San Diego Zoo, Disneyland, Yellowstone, the Grand Canyon, and New York with the skill of a travel art journalist, refining technique in watercolor, pastel, pencil, ink, colored pencil, and collage.
A crafts-focused week of fiber arts, painting, cartoon creation, and graffiti art, plus a unique drive-in theater project where campers build cardboard cars and enjoy a movie.

The staff are dedicated, and the museum effectively fosters an atmosphere of artistic interaction among the city's residents! It's very approachable, yet the artistic level remains excellent!
View on Google ↗Yes, it's small, but it's also charming and an excellent place to learn and be inspired to learn and do more. Being free on Tuesdays was a boon to my family so thank you thank you!
View on Google ↗This was a great Arts and Crafts show, we had a very nice time. Local alcohol inks artist Anastasia Kenner was there and she talked with us about classes that she offers. This photo does not showcase her most outstanding works so please check her out. There are so many really good artists that work out of The Arts Center.

View on Google ↗I’m going to preface this by saying, my event was about 3 years ago, I’m writing about it now because it still bothers me that it happened. I had my baby shower here because I was wanting a classy and more sophisticated type of shower. We had two full cars of decorations and food. We had payed for a certain amount of time and I understood this. It’s a beautiful location and everything looked nice and was comfortable. My issue and the reason for my rating is the customer service was lacking and insensitive. I was right in the middle of opening my baby shower presents when the front desk person came in and told us we had to wrap everything up, he was not very nice and seemed put out that we were there at all. From my understanding he wanted to go home and my baby shower was in his way of leaving. We had almost reached our limit of time which I understand, but he didn’t ask if we wanted to pay extra to extend our time, which I would have done since it was to be my only baby shower. Instead we were unceremoniously rushed out of the venue. I would recommend this venue because the courtyard is beautiful, but only if you are willing to pay extra ahead of time for more time then you will need so you aren’t pushed out the door before you time is up.
