Our youth program offers art classes to kids up to 13 years old for a small fee. For us, “art” means every form of creative expression: we’ve had workshops about everything from watercolor to dance! Check this page often, as we’re always offering something new. We offer classes that are free, almost free or great values because we believe that everyone should have access to art. If you know a kid who needs some art in his or her life, but for whom the cost is a barrier, just let us know. We have scholarships that are easy to apply for and that cover everything from tuition to instrument rental fees.
If you’re over the age of 13, don’t worry! Check out Art Rocks Teens (A.R.T.), our FREE after-school program. Schedule and more information here.
If you’re not already a member of the Pendleton Center for the Arts, you can take advantage of our reduced tuition for members by joining here.
Our programs are made possible through the support of the Oregon Arts Commission and various foundations. |

MUSIC FOR YOUTH Our youth music programs are supported by funding from the Charlotte Martin Foundation, the PGE Foundation and the Rotary Club of Pendleton. It’s all part of S.P.A.R.K., Supporting Performing Arts for Rural Kids, which is helping us bring music to any kid who’s interested, regardless of his or her ability to pay for lessons. Just ask us about tuition scholarships, instrument rental assistance and our instrument lending library!
Group lessons will be offered in three 10-week sessions this year. (Dates subject to change.)

Over the course of his travels, Jared picked up everything from the piano to drums to mandolin, and he loves bringing in other instruments to accompany his Arts Center students on their guitars. |
