Featuring Local, Regional, and National Artists
The Arts Council has a variety of spaces and venues showcasing local, regional, and national visual artists.
Exhibits encompass a full spectrum of artists’ professional experience: from beginning amateur to seasoned professional, our mission is to assist all levels of artist in continued learning through exhibition opportunity.
At The Kemp
• The NorthLight gallery is dedicated to our most experienced artists.
• The West End Studio gallery typically features a varying level of emerging artists and smaller professional exhibits.
• The Patio gallery and our other auxiliary spaces feature community programming.
• The Sculpture Garden is the home to 11 permanent pieces, as well as our annual juried exhibit featuring 10 national and international artists. These pieces remain on the grounds for a full calendar year, changing each May.
At The Forum
• The Galleria offers a variety of small-scale exhibits throughout the year.
All gallery exhibits are open to the public FREE OF CHARGE during regular open hours.
