Rumriver Art Center is offering over 50 Kids Summer Art Camps in 2021 – including our NEW Pre-K Craft Camp! The camps provide a stimulating environment for young artists to grow as creative, unique individuals and to learn how to solve problems visually. RRAC continues to follow our COVID-19 policies and procedures in alignment with MN State Guidelines.

The Rumriver Art Center is excited to be partnering with the cities of Anoka, Coon Rapids and Ramsey to offer some amazing in person Summer Art Camps for adults at local parks. Art camps will be offered at Peninsula Point Park and Akin Riverside Park in Anoka, Lions Park in Coon Rapids and Elmcrest Park in Ramsey. The cities are providing these parks for the camps because they all have shelters, restrooms and parking.

Rumriver Art Center will be hosting a Student Art Show in its art gallery. The show opening is Saturday, May 22, 2021 from 2pm-4pm.

The art gallery show will feature the artwork of Rumriver Art Center students who took one or more classes in 2020 either in-person or virtually via Zoom. 2- and 3-Dimensional artwork in a variety of mediums, including oil, acrylic, drawing, pottery, watercolor, mixed-media and more, will be on display. Students who submitted artwork participated in Vitality Arts Older Adult Classes, Adult Classes, Kids Classes, Homeschool Classes, Pottery Classes, Community Art Classes and more.

Join the city of Ramsey and Rumriver Art Center for the Elmcrest Art Fair! This event will feature local artists selling their work, local food vendors, artist demonstrations, and introductory art classes. Visitors will be able to vote on their favorite artists, with a grand prize of $200 for the “People’s Choice Award.”
