Dodge Pratt Northam Art & Community Center

After you’re done in the gallery, sharpen your own artistic skills 

You can see an art show or other exhibit at this art center, which is in an ornate brick manse that was built as the home of a local banker. But the classes, workshops and studio space offered at the center are at the heart of its mission. Take advantage of music lessons, including voice, piano, and stringed instruments; art instruction; pottery lessons; and more. Home-schooled students can take art classes at the center on Thursday.
