Community Arts of Elmira
exists to serve. We provide performance and exhibition space to new
and established artists; develop arts educational programs and activities; and
create public awareness by encouraging participation in and appreciation for
all of the arts, primarily through low- or no-cost access. Programs are
multi-disciplinary, including the visual, literary, performing, musical and
healing arts, as well as art therapy. Community Arts is also a historic
preservation advocate, repurposing a Second Empire, Italianate Victorian
mansion for an arts center replete with historical narrative and architecture,
public art outreach and creative community partnerships.
