Saw the quilt exhibition and was so pleased to see such a variety of quilts displayed in such a lovely venue. The staff was knowledgeable and super helpful!

This looks like a lovely arts center and gallery! We thought it was a quilt show for buying quilts however it was specifically a quilt art show with an admission price. We just visited the gift shop which was nice. Apparently some of the quilts were for sale however we were not interested enough to pay an admission price to view them.Very nice facility from what we saw from the front entrance and gift shop area.

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.

Great place for a wedding.. Food Trucks are a great option for this venue. There is a great variety of trucks to choose from in the Utica area just an hour south of Old Forge.

Beautiful quilts on display. Fortunately we went up the stairs and found more rooms with quilts, we were told quilts were in 3 rooms on entry level.

We made our reservations for this year only weeks after we stayed in 2021. Four weeks before we were to visit we got an e-mail stating the balance left on our reservation had been increased by $173 over the three day holiday weekend. If we hadn't made reservations for several tourist attractions we'd have canceled. I called and spoke to the person at the front desk and asked if they had any discounts and was told - Yes, a senior discount. I planned to speak to a manager, when we got there concerning, the price increase and the discount. The manager told me that she had no clue why our rate had increased so much and that there was no discount because of the Columbus Day weekend. They eventually gave us a 10% discount after my protests but the rate for the hotel had gone up $30 per night! Never again!

I have always looked forward to the Watercolor Exhibition, which coincides with my annual trip to the Old Forge area. Lately, however, this show lacks the wonder and awe it used to hold for me. For one thing, the subject matter of the chosen works has changed from predominantly nature and beauty to dark and dingy infrastructure ( from various crumbling cities ) portraits of people who appear unhappy or in some sort of distress, and abstract images that lack anything that would engage me in any way. These are the things ( subjects) I travel up here to get away from. This year's exhibition was primarily and foremost subject matter I will see in some form or fashion by the side of the interstate. I didn't bother to vote this year for a favorite, because there just wasn't one.

Our daughter and now son-in-law chose View Center for Arts & Culture for their wedding because of its close proximity to family and it’s beautiful courtyard, but little did they know they would end up working with an amazing event coordinator as an added bonus. Alden is a tremendous asset throughout the entire planning process. He is very responsive and patient with questions and although new to the Old Forge area, has his thumb on the pulse of the community and the local businesses. On the day of the wedding, Alden was with us from mid-morning set-up until the last guest walked out the door at 10pm. He was even there to lend a helping hand during the next mornings clean-up. He brings with him a southern charm and hospitality that is unsurpassed at other venues. We cannot say enough good things about the View!! Our daughter’s wedding was amazing and we gained a new family friend along the way.
