Indianapolis Art Center

The Indianapolis Art Center is an arts facility with multiple gallery spaces, studios, and classrooms dedicated to visual arts education and exhibitions. The building serves both as a teaching space and a venue where artworks are regularly displayed for public viewing.

This facility was established in 1934 as part of a broader Depression-era initiative to support the arts and communities. Over the decades, it expanded from those early roots into a major institutional presence in the city's art landscape.

The center brings together people of different ages through art programs and shows how creative practice is woven into local life. Visitors can observe artists and students at work daily, with their pieces displayed throughout the gallery spaces.

You can register for classes year-round in disciplines such as ceramics, photography, painting, and sculpture, with special rates available for members. Check the website ahead of time to find current course offerings and when the gallery spaces are open to the public.

The grounds feature outdoor art spaces along the White River where artists and students create and display their work within a natural setting. This blend of art making with riverside surroundings sets it apart from typical urban arts venues.
