Main Line Art Center

About

A welcoming, inclusive creative home where everyone is encouraged to discover art through classes, exhibitions, and programs for people with disabilities.

Story

Main Line Art Center is a welcoming and inclusive creative home where everyone is encouraged to create, experience, and discover the value of art. We define art, artistic practice, and art education as lifetime opportunities for personal growth, enlightenment, joy, and development.

Our award-winning programs span from the traditional to more contemporary, and are all held to a high level of artistic excellence. The art we exhibit, teach, and share is intended to inspire you, encourage conversation and connections, bring joy to your life, and exceed your expectations.

Committed to making art more accessible to everyone, we offer art programs for individuals of all ages and abilities, including a unique series of outreach programs, which serve as national models, for children and adults with developmental and physical disabilities. Main Line Art Center also grants over $12,000 in need-based scholarships annually.

Throughout the year, we present innovative, contemporary art exhibitions in our spacious award-winning galleries. Our exhibition program celebrates our community of artists, as well as emerging and established artists whose work encourages intellectual dialogue and serves as a source of inspiration.

Last year over 16,000 people were a part of our creative community, whether they created masterpieces and memories in one of our classes, engaged in a conversation with an exhibiting artist, or reached their potential in one of our life-transforming accessible programs. Come discover yourself here.
