Community – We believe the arts are an essential component of a well-rounded, healthy and vibrant community. We also believe that all members of the community should have access to the arts and artistic experiences. We offer free programming throughout the year and our contribute what you can fee structure keeps our art classes available to everyone.

Culture – We believe in embracing and representing the full character and depth of our community, so we offer a broad array of artistic experiences. Our art classes feature different mediums; we present concerts by local and nationally known musical performers from a variety of backgrounds, traditions and genres; and we introduce a wide variety of visual arts and artists to the community through our auction, artisan festival and public art program.

Collaboration – We believe that working in relationship with other organizations and individuals amplifies our impact in the community. We pride ourselves in the many partnerships we have developed so that we can serve the community in the best way possible.

Connection – We believe that when people experience art together they are better able to connect with each other and with themselves. Shared creative spaces can break down barriers and make it easier for people to understand one another. Our art spaces are places where people can learn and grow in a nurturing, welcoming environment.
