  • GATEWAYS TO ORANGE

    25 years after our founding, we’ve returned to our roots: creating public art for Orange! Visit our mural project page to learn about our murals, the artists who created them, and the many members of our community who helped out!

  • CLASSES + WORKSHOPS

    Register today for upcoming classes and workshops led by talented artists from our community and beyond!

    Our facility includes two educational spaces: a ceramics studio and a classroom, where local and visiting artists provide fine art instruction for all ages and skill levels. Classes are an amazing way to learn a new skill and deepen your appreciation of art.

  • COMMUNITY OUTREACH

    Our grant and private-donation funded education program is known as “Community Outreach” because we send artists out into the community, reaching people where they are.

    Working closely with other local nonprofit organizations, our Artist Instructors cultivate creativity by designing engaging projects, performances, and interactive installations for traditionally underserved members of our community to enjoy.

The Mission of The Arts Center in Orange is to increase the quality of life in our community by promoting an appreciation for fine contemporary arts in diverse styles and ideologies.

For over 27 years, The Arts Center in Orange has ensured that ART HAPPENS HERE in Orange, VA and surrounding communities. Do you believe in access to art for all? Support The Arts Center today!
