Our Story |
Our Mission |
|
The Kingston School of Art, a non-profit charitable organization, was formed in 1994. Governed by a community based volunteer Board of Directors, the School is supported by fundraising, student fees, donations and grants.
People involved in the School recognize the importance of art and believe that affordable fine arts programming should be available to the Kingston community. We are also home to the only publicly accessible lithographic printing presses in Kingston, keeping access to this hands-on artform alive. We welcome community learning and participation in the lithographic craft. |
To provide accessible year-round art programs within a supportive environment for people of all ages.
To manage these programs within a non-profit service. To address financial barriers for participation. To offer programs in a studio-based environment with artists/tutors/masters for hands-on instruction and a practical artistic experience. To foster artistic individuality and innovation. To enhance the opportunities for the cultivation of art within our community. |
