Description

From the Pelham Art Center The Pelham Art Center is currently closed due to COVID-19. We have not had any known cases onsite, this is to protect the community via social distancing. This is a delicate time for the Pelham Art Center. We needed to postpone our Spring Gala which usually supports 10% of our operating budget. We also decided to cancel our Spring Break camp and remaining Winter semester classes. Yes, we do plan on hosting our Spring classes, but we continue to monitor the situation and CDC recommendations in our area. PROGRAM UPDATESVISIONS 2020 - 50th Anniversary Legacy GalaHas been rescheduled to Saturday, Oct 3rd 2020. Spring ClassesRegistration is open! Classes are small, and creativity is important to our mental and physical health. Spring classes will operate under the health regulations outlined here. Class registration is vital to the operations of the Art Center. As of right now our spring semester would start on April 14. If we need to delay the start dates by 1 or 2 weeks we will. This is an uncertain time and we are hopeful we will reopen before the current scheduled spring semester starts. Gallery"Pelham Art Center: 50 Years" is extended through the end of April.
