                                                 About Us
                                  Experience the Arts with Us!
The North Hills Art Center (NHAC) was founded in 1959 as the Artists' and Craftsmen's Guild by a group of
dedicated artists who understood the importance of having a permanent haven where people throughout the North
Hills and surrounding areas could come and learn, express themselves, and appreciate all forms of art. Today,
amateurs and professionals alike enjoy that vision in the North Hills Art Center, where they can exhibit their artwork
and benefit from the camaraderie found in our classes, open studio sessions and private parties.

                                         Scouting Workshops!
We can provide your troop with the requirements needed to complete projects and earn your merit badges. All
workshops require a minimum of 5 scouts in attendance. Workshops can be modified to include projects of your
choice. Don't see an art or STEAM badge your troop wants to earn? Email the requirements to us and if we can
get the supplies - we'll make it happen! $20-$35 per person (visit northhillsartcenter.org for more info.)

                                             Special Events!
Wine tastings, the Annual Summer Solstice Raku Party, beer tastings, and cultural events like the Cherry Blossom
Festival and the Chrysanthemum Festival are just a few of the Special Events we offer. Free Lectures are provided
throughout the year to members and non-members. We also participate in the annual RADical Day in the fall (this
is a free event, open to the public). (visit northhillsartcenter.org for more info and to sign-up for our e-news!)

                                        Artists’ Opportunities!
The North Hills Art Center supports local artists in a variety of ways – from providing a vibrant gallery and
community for showcasing artwork in our many exhibitions throughout the year, holding a private show (emerging
artists), the opportunity to be an artist and educator; and to create during Open Studio Sessions. By becoming
a member of the Art Center, artists can enjoy lower fees when entering shows, taking classes; enjoy discounts at
several local art supply & framing shops and be one of the first to know about upcoming shows/events through our
email newsletter. Membership also qualifies the artist to free entry in our Artisan Markets where you can showcase
your work to the many patrons who seek to purchase handmade items at our Artisan Markets. (visit
northhillsartcenter.org for more info)
