An incredible asset for the community. Wonderful exhibits, community outreach, and my personal favorite, musical performances.Worth a visit if you’re anywhere near Old Forge. Good stuff for kids, too, just check the calendar on the web site.
The Arts Guild of Old Forge was founded by Miriam Kashiwa in 1951, when she first organized an arts show on her front lawn, with paintings displayed on chicken wire.
From its humble beginnings, the arts center has flourished through the years, growing steadily to become a year-round multi-arts organization.
In 2011, the Arts Center/Old Forge moved across New York State Route 28 into its new facility, and was branded “View.”
View is a dynamic Center for Arts and Culture, with a mission to enrich, educate, entertain, and inspire.
We help artists of all skill levels develop and fulfill their visions through Exhibitions, Workshops, Performances, Events, Independent opportunities (pottery and painting), and more.
