New Art Center, Newton

From the School's Website...

We are an inclusive, 501(c)(3) non-profit community makerspace offering affordable studios, shared workshops, classrooms, and communal spaces used by artists, makers, entrepreneurs, and students. Shops are free to use for all members and anyone paying to take a class.

The New Art Center is a community art education space which offers everyone, at all levels of ability, exceptional opportunities to make, exhibit, view, think about and talk about art. Since 1977, New Art has built community by lowering barriers to participation in the arts, and integrating the experience of art into everyday life. Today, we envision the New Art Center as a highly visible, bold, anti-racist, inclusive leader in art education and community building that serves the greater Boston community with programs and opportunities both in our facility and beyond our walls. New Art believes that the practice of looking at, thinking about, and making art helps human beings solve problems, learn from their environment, build durable communities, and live meaningful lives.

Excellent Art Education
New Art offers a supportive culture that takes art and artists seriously, providing 400+ classes annually taught by faculty that includes some of the region’s most esteemed art educators. New Art offers an inclusive, multigenerational approach to art education that serves annually more than 3200 students of all ages — children, teens, and adults — from beginners to advanced artists. Scholarships and tuition subsidies are available for adults, teens and children so that everyone can participate, regardless of income level.
