Community Programs
Monson Arts is dedicated to being a vibrant resource for art and creativity in the local community. In addition to programming community workshops and events, we are actively developing educational partnerships with area secondary schools under the belief that intensive programs in a professional art center can be a catalyst for how students perceive themselves as creative people.
