Paint Creek Center For The Arts

Since 1982, Paint Creek Center for the Arts has been dedicated to promoting the arts and artistic excellence through a full range of cultural programs including exhibitions, studio art classes, outreach programs, community involvement projects, and the Art & Apples Festival®. PCCA is committed to creating opportunities for artists to exhibit original works. The exhibition season includes group shows and solo exhibits. In addition, PCCA produces exhibition catalogs, artist profiles, and presents public lectures in conjunction with each exhibition. Annually, hundreds of professional artists showcase their work at PCCA. Art education classes are offered in a variety of media for all ages and levels of experience. Drawing, painting, ceramics, photography, and summer camps are the core of PCCA’s programming. In addition to its arts education offerings, PCCA awards one (1) $2000 college scholarship annually to a promising high school senior from Rochester planning to further their fine art studies. PCCA may be best known for presenting the Art & Apples Festival, a nationally acclaimed fine art fair held annually the weekend after Labor Day.
