Get Involved
Education
Education is a priority at the Carnegie Visual Arts Center through hands-on creative opportunities such as Camp Carnegie, lunch and learns, field trips, artist visits, and our upcoming Nature and Dye Garden. We work to actively engage our community in learning more about the arts.
Carnegie Carnival
Carnegie Carnival is North Alabama’s largest Mardi Gras celebration and the marquee fund-raising project for the Carnegie. Join us and “Laissez les bon temps rouller!”
Programs
The Carnegie strives to create an environment that expands your horizons. Travel with fellow art lovers through the Carnegie Travel group. Stretch your mind and body by taking part in a Carnegie Yoga class or enjoy public art as you walk through the streets of downtown Decatur. There is something for everyone!
Partnerships
Passionately promoting art for all takes many forms at the Carnegie Visual Arts Center. We take art outside of our walls by working with our many community art partners.
Outreach
We support art in our community. Whether reaching out to students in our area schools, bringing art to a local library or speaking with local civic groups, the Carnegie reaches out to you.
Volunteer
There is always something going on at the Carnegie with many opportunities for enthusiastic volunteers!
