Our vision is an engaged community, inspired by rich artistic and cultural opportunities. We believe that everyone should have access to quality art education and exhibitions regardless of their income level. We see the importance of partnering with other organizations within the community and over the years we have shared our skill set with over 35 local groups. The Center is a membership organization run by an Executive Director, a part-time gallery assistant, and a Board of Directors. Our facility, located on Main Street in historic downtown Livingston, MT, includes classroom and exhibition space.
Rotating exhibits: - The Community Show, which is open to all artists in Park County, regardless of artistic experience or age. - Expanding Horizons: a preschool show where all art is created by our littlest community members and funds raised go back to the schools. - The Park High Senior Showcase: a gallery exhibition where our PHS Seniors show off art.
Off Campus Show: MSU students have an opportunity to present their art and earn cash prizes. - Plein Air Painting on the Yellowstone: a one-week "paint-off".
