Due to the pandemic caused by the novel coronavirus, the 2020-21 Ready, Set, Create program is postponed until further notice.

FULL PROGRAMMING WILL BE RETURNING SEPTEMBER 2022! 

The Ready, Set, Create! program provides four weeks of art education to over 400 Alpena youth. Students travel to the gallery from over 10 schools
