Bemis School of Art Summer Session
Whatever your artistic interest and whatever your age or skill level, we have classes to drive your passions at the Fine Arts Center’s Bemis School of Art. Explore! Browse classes

With so many things to do here, we strive to be as flexible as you are. See current exhibitions on view
