Support the Arts

A More Creative Community Starts With Us.

What makes a place feel like home? Sometimes, it's the people we meet. The traditions we share. The unexpected experiences that remind us how much there is to discover right here.

​

The arts are part of that story. 

At the Center for the Arts, we bring visual, performing, and literary arts to life throughout the Lake Sunapee Region. We create opportunities for artists to share their work, for students to discover their creative potential, and for people of all ages to experience something new together.

​

But a thriving arts community doesn't happen on its own. It grows because people believe it matters.

When you support CFA, you help make creativity part of our community's present — and its future.

Testimonials

"Artists tend to be creative loners, so Open Studios offers a unique event to step out of that role and become more "commercial" without feeling that one is selling out, so to speak. I am 100% for continuing this event each Fall. Thanks to all the staff who made Open Studios a success"

Jean Twombly, CFA Artist

A Place for Everyone in the Arts

The Center for the Arts brings people, ideas, and opportunities together—supporting artists in their work, helping young people discover their potential, connecting educators with resources, and creating meaningful ways for local organizations and neighbors to participate in the creative life of our region.
