The Center

Welcome to the Mt Washington Valley Visual Arts Center!

The Mt. Washington Valley Visual Arts Center is the place to see, learn, and connect with the visual arts.

The Center is located at 16 Norcross Place in North Conway Village (downstairs through the double red doors to the right of the Old Village Barbershop). The Center is typically open Monday through Friday, 9AM-2PM. These hours are “general” hours so please call ahead if you’re planning to stop by. Check the program section for events, including exhibits, shows, programs, courses and workshops, during which the Center may be open additional hours.

A SPECIAL APPEAL:
HEART ART needs new art supplies

The MWV Visual Arts Center is beginning a new program, “Heart Art” in collaboration with Starting Point. The healing benefits of the arts are well documented. As a way to support the healing of Starting Points’ clients, the MWVAA is pleased to announce the kick-off of “Heart Art” with an art supply drive to collect new art materials to fill art kits for these women and children. Bring new arts supplies to the Visual Art Center and support this program. Would you like to help with this project? Send us an email or give a call at 603-356-2787.
