Maude Kerns Art Center

The Center is dedicated to serving the public through major exhibitions, art classes, lectures, workshops, outreach programs, and intimate performances.

The Center is run by a dedicated staff and a Board of Directors representing a diversity of professionals in the community. Ou...
