Gallery Program

The Carnegie Art Center is south central Minnesota's largest visual arts gallery featuring the work of regional artists. In 2009, we celebrated thirty years of documenting and presenting the contemporary culture of this distinctive region of greater Minnesota through the visual arts, crafts and design.

The Gallery Program produces several community based group shows during our season. These include the Annual Prairie Lakes Regional Art Juried Exhibit with more than 80 regional artists participating.

The Carnegie Art Center volunteers curate two monthly exhibitions of fine arts by local and regional visual artists in many disciplines including painting, sculpture, ceramics, handblown glass, printmaking, fine craft, photography and digital art.

The Gallery welcomes over 2500 visitors a year to experience the creativity of regional artists living and working in our communities. The Gallery exhibits the work of artists of all ages - working with the local school districts, emerging artists, and professional visual artists.
