​Valley Art Center is the hub of the visual arts in the Chagrin Valley, providing local communities with art classes, art exhibitions, and fine art shopping for over 50 years. Each year, we offer over 400 classes, workshops and summer camps for students, from children to seniors, who range from beginner to seasoned professional. Explore drawing, painting, ceramics, photography, jewelry, metalwork, and more. Our Bowen & Patron Galleries host 9 exhibits annually with curated, invitational, and juried shows. On the second weekend of June each year we host Art by the Falls, a fine art and contemporary craft outdoor festival drawing over 120 artists and over 15,000 visitors. Our calls to entry draw local, regional, and national artists from the Cleveland area and beyond. The Valley Art/Shop and galleries host hundreds of unique original pieces of art for sale, from functional to flashy, at a wide variety of price points.

COVID Policy Update - Ongoing

Due to the continued decline in Covid cases in our area and relaxed state mandates, we are moving to MASKS OPTIONAL throughout the VAC.  Of course, we will continuously monitor the situation and will revise our policy as we go forwarded if needed.

This policy is to not only protect our teachers and students, but also to ensure we can continue to have in person classes. We will continue to re-evaluate as pandemic conditions evolve.
 
Of course, if you have symptoms (even cold symptoms) please get tested for Covid before attending class and if testing positive, please follow CDC guidelines accordingly. Thank you all! Let’s make some ART!
