We are a nonprofit agency which has been in operation since 1984, to stimulate an interest in and appreciation of visual arts in the Alleghany Highlands. Classes are offered for all ages year round. New Exhibits of a wide range of style, technique, and media are featured in the Center's Gallery free of admission every 4 to 6 weeks. The Center Shop provides a location for regional juried artists and craftspeople to display and sell high-quality fine arts and crafts.
