Programs

The Frank Bette Center offers numerous programs to serve our community of artists and art lovers.

Our programs include:
  • Programs & Meetings: Regularly-scheduled events in music, poetry, storytelling, and speakers in art, art history and the art of collecting move the creative spirit, share talents, and give and receive support and constructive input.
  • Classes: Instruction is offered in a variety of media and experience levels from beginners getting their creative feet wet to advanced students digging deep to develop their craft, students working at their own pace, and like-minded groups gathering to enjoy and enhance their talents.
  • Art Exhibits: There is always something fresh and new in the Center’s Main and Signature Galleries, from rotating group and solo shows that present fine arts and crafts, jewelry and textile arts, sculpture, paintings, and photography to various modes of literary, music, and mixed media arts.
