Indy Art Center Youth Classes and Camps

Indy Art Center Youth Classes and Camps take place within the broader Indy Art Center programs, which include hundreds of classes and camps each year. The program is part of an organization that also presents more than a dozen contemporary art exhibitions in six galleries annually.

• Schedule: General hours of operation are Monday–Friday 9 am–10 pm, Saturday 9 am–6 pm, and Sunday 12 pm–6 pm

The Indy Art Center’s mission is to provide accessible and inclusive art experiences that inspire creativity, educate, engage, and enrich the community. The organization began in 1934 with studios over garages, was incorporated as the Indianapolis Art League Foundation in 1961, moved to Broad Ripple Village in 1976, changed its name to the Indianapolis Art Center in 1994, and opened ARTSPARK in 2005, remaining a cultural destination in 2024. Its history highlights contributions from William Kaeser as the first artist/teacher, Floyd Hopper as a long-time faculty artist, and M. Steele Churchman for leadership of the move to Broad Ripple Village. As a nonprofit, it offers an outreach program that takes art into underserved communities and hosts the OneAmerica Broad Ripple Art Fair, and it partners with several arts, culture, and community organizations in central Indiana.
