We will host three workshops in 2025: a Spring Watercolor Workshop, a Summer Oil Workshop, and a Fall Pastel Painting Workshop. Each workshop features a different nationally awarded artist to teach for four days. Workshops typically run from 9am - 4pm with lunches provided and the registration fee is kept extremely low thanks to funding provided by our sponsors.

For us, local artists are the key to Piqua Arts.
This series gives us a chance to spotlight those local amazing artists and show what they do for their community. Homegrown Arts is our video interview series where we sit down with local artists to listen to their story, see their works, and join their journey in the local arts scene.
This program focuses on bringing quality art programming into the Piqua Schools. Focusing on four segments of the school population: Kindergarten, First through Third Grades, Fourth through Sixth Grade, and Seventh through Twelfth, this program looks to directly impact students at every grade level.

Member's Gallery
Utilizing the office space at 427 N. Main St, we started a program years ago, centered on creating a space for members to share their artistic creations. Any member of PAC has the opportunity to display work in the gallery. Novice artists to professional artists are all welcome with artwork being rotated quarterly. The gallery is open weekdays from 10am to 4pm and for special events.
