Our Visual Arts Program offers opportunities for artists to experiment and transform ideas into works of art. We are home to Gallery I, curated through an annual call-out, and Gallery II, dedicated to our studio artists and studio residencies.

We invite audiences to not just observe, but to connect and engage, learning about the process of art-making. Our galleries are open Monday to Friday, 10am to 4pm.
