The Kirkland Art Center was established in 1960 using the second floor of the town library as a meeting place. From the beginning there were classes, exhibitions, films, concerts, and lectures. The KAC is now an active regional multi-arts center, housed in an old church, barn, and connecting addition located on the village green in Clinton, NY.
Our mission has stayed steadfast over our 60-year history and we are committed to including the rich diversity of voices, experiences and perspectives in all we do. With the help of our community, members, volunteers, funding sources, and guidance from the NY State Council on the Arts , our programming is always evolving as the world around us changes.
We welcome people of all ages and abilities to join us in engaging with the arts in our community through classes and workshops, live performances, and exhibitions.
Please visit our website, KACny.org, to see a schedule of upcoming exhibitions, classes, concerts and events.
