Who We Are

At Arts on the Lake, creativity brings people together! We are a nonprofit arts organization in Kent, NY, dedicated to making the arts accessible, inspiring, and an exciting part of community life. From live performances and art exhibitions to hands-on classes and special events, there is always something happening to spark your imagination.

Our year-round calendar offers something for everyone. Explore a variety of classes, enjoy musical performances spanning classical, jazz, pop, and rock, and join us for our popular Concerts on the Lawn each summer, featuring live music in our beautiful outdoor setting.

The excitement continues on stage with our theatre program, which celebrates original and innovative work, including locally inspired productions, stand-up theatre, and new works. Our Visual Artists Committee showcases the talents of regional artists through major spring and fall exhibitions, along with a variety of special art events throughout the year.

And there's even more to enjoy! From our much-loved annual fundraising tag sale to festive holiday celebrations and community gatherings, Arts on the Lake is a place to connect, discover something new, and share memorable experiences.

Our vision has always been simple: to create a welcoming place where creativity can flourish. A place where artists can create, perform, exhibit, and share their work; where audiences can be inspired; and where the arts bring our community closer together.

We invite you to be part of it!
