    The Flower City Arts Center is an amazing community space offering art opportunities for ALL…read morepeople: with classes for youth (pottery classes for ages 3 and up, teen classes, workshops and summer camps) and adults, for every level (beginner, intermediate and advanced), in several disciplines (photography, book arts and ceramics, plus offerings in drawing and painting) there is something for everyone! In the years since covid, the FCAC has not only survived, but they have thrived! Thanks in large part to a generous and supportive community of members and students, luck with grants, and a dedicated staff, they have weathered two leadership changes, have innovated with online course offerings and collaborations, and have upgraded the facility's security and air exchange systems to ensure a safe and healthy environment for all students, teachers, members, staff and community attendees. If you haven't visited in a while there are lots of things going on: -- check out exciting new class listings each quarter - weekend workshops, multi-day/week classes, artist talks -- join us on a First Friday when the galleries are open (and free!), highlighting local talent -- take part in our upcoming Flower City Pottery invitational (this year, Oct 13-15, 2023) - a 3-day ceramics event featuring artist talks, demos and a large and eclectic variety of items for sale -- Watch for community collaborations like the Clarissa Uprooted - Pythodd Tribute Mural Unveiling & Celebration on Main Street, in conjunction with Teen Empowerment The FCAC is a place I not only love and support (in case you can't tell from this review and my two others...), but as a 24/7 renter, I actively use the space too. I'd love to see more of your faces there - next time you are around ask for me and tell them I sent you!

    I have only taken one class at Flower City Arts Center, but can't wait to get back and flex my…read morevisual art "skills." I was sent to Intro to Adobe Illustrator by my work, and had the best experience. There was a ton of content crammed into our semester, and I now confidently create advertisements, eblasts, and social media content for my organization in Illustrator exclusively. Working in Illustrator can often be frustrating, but Jeremy (the instructor) answered my questions with grace, patience, and a sense of humor. A gift certificate to this center makes for a great gift! There is a wide variety of class offerings, and many opportunities to push yourself or someone you love out of their comfort zone. Nonprofit art centers like Flower City are the backbone of ROC, and make it the cultural beacon that it is. I hope to someday become a member and make use of this facility on a more regular basis.
