The non-profit Art Center is a nine studio art school with three interior galleries and an outdoor exhibition space (Art Park). The Art Center is the largest of the state's regional art centers devoted exclusively to contemporary art through studio classes, workshops, special programs, and exhibitions.
The Art Center is partially funded by the NJ State Council on the Arts and is wheelchair-accessible. Guided tours are available by appointment for school, community, and adult groups. Special programs include lectures, seminars, films, workshops, teachers' symposia, trips to other cultural institutions, and concert series.
