Evansville Art Center

Home to the Evansville Arts Coalition, the Evansville Art Center has been serving the people of Evansville and surrounding communities with arts programming since 1995.

First organized in 1995 and incorporated as a Minnesota nonprofit in 1996, the Evansville Art Center is located at 111 Main Street in Evansville and is housed in the second oldest building in Evansville. Twice a drug store and cafe, the building now serves as an exhibit space, a music venue and a place for artists-in-residence to sell their work.

Gallery hours are Fridays and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Visit evansvilleartcenter.org or call (218) 948-2787 for more information.
