Silvermine Arts Center

Incorporated as a non-profit organization in 1922, Silvermine has exemplified excellence in art and art education for nearly a century. Our mission is to cultivate, promote and encourage growth through the arts and to provide arts education and appreciation opportunities for the greater community. For nearly a century, Silvermine has provided art experiences that engage individuals of all ages, ethnicities, races, genders and income in creative expression and discovery through making and exhibiting art.

Our five-acre campus in New Canaan encompasses an award-winning School of Art; a nationally renowned Guild of over 300 professional artists; a complex of five galleries presenting exhibitions by emerging and established contemporary artists; a permanent collection of original prints; and an outdoor Sculpture Walk that blends art and nature.

Our educational mission extends beyond our campus. Our extensive Educational Outreach Programs provide curriculum-based arts education to 1,000 children in under-resourced Bridgeport, Norwalk and Stamford schools and nourishes the creative spirit of individuals with disabilities or mental health issues through collaborations with neighboring non-profits.
