Loving a woodworking class here. The shop is so well equipped and our teacher is wonderful. The building and grounds are beautiful. Stop by sometime and walk around. You’ll be impressed.

Always an amazing time. Beautiful art. Amazing staff. Fun and informative classes!

We went to the garden/park. very peaceful

Copper printmaking class by Kalleen was great fun. She taught us then let us go - but was there with a rag or advice when needed. The Indy art center is taking many measures to prevent the spread of Covid19. This was my first venture out of quarrantine other than food gathering and I am pleased I went.

A nice place to walk around. Lots of modern art

The Indianapolis Art Center is an incredible asset to the community that delivers such remarkable benefit! Our non-profit is so grateful to have been able to rent this wonderful space. The atmosphere, communication, and contact with the IAC for our free positive parenting event was exemplary; and the provided equipment was wonderfully helpful. The space was set up and ready to go when we arrived and it was generally the easiest, most fluid part of organizing and hosting an event. We feel lucky to have such an asset in the area for places like ourselves to host events and engage with our community members. Thank you, IAC!

There is a great variety of art class choices for different people and budgets. There is also opportunity to receive financial assistance or for children to receive free art education through community partner programming around the city. IF you have time and money, then you have a real opportunity to take classes from some of the very best artists in the city.But the very best part of the Indianapolis Art Center is free. The exhibitions inside the Art Center galleries feature work by nationally acclaimed artists, as well as young blooming artists and students too. There is no other gallery in Indianapolis as diverse and eclectic as the Art Center. Additionally, the sculpture park is also free and a beautiful place to experience art and nature.Another amazing thing is the history. The building itself is designed by Michael Graves -- who is from Broad Ripple too -- and was picked by Joyce Sommers herself.In the words of Kurt Vonnegut: The Art Center is an example of America at its most Utopian -- peaceful, welcoming to one and all, and boundlessly optimistic.

My husband and I had our wedding ceremony only here this spring. Brylie and Abby were both wonderful to work with. They communicated professionally and quickly with us via email and in person. For those on a budget, the Sunday price is well worth it, especially for a venue in Indianapolis and what they provide. Multiple options to choose from both inside and outside (it’s tough to decide!), chair set up/tear down, spaces to get ready in, plenty of parking, galleries for your guests to look at, and so many beautiful spots for photos. Abby was with us for the big day and I can’t thank her enough for helping us with making sure everything went smoothly. And the arts center is a great asset to the community! I know, I’ve also taken several classes there thanks to their scholarship program. I’m so glad that we were able to get married here. It was lovely.

My husband and I got married at the Indianapolis Art Center this Spring. We had an extremely fun wedding at such a beautiful venue! Throughout the planning process, the Art Center was great to work with! They were organized and communicative as we planned the big day. We loved it! I definitely reccomend the Indianapolis Art Center as a great wedding venue!

I recently hosted a surprise birthday party for my wife at the Art Center (in the library) and it could not have gone better. Brylie and Abby were extremely helpful from when I first contacted them up through the night of the event. It was a little bit of a unique event and they made it very easy for me to pull off the surprise. The venue worked perfectly, ample parking and a great location!

Awesome photo opportunities

STAY AWAY from their classes !1) I signed up for 2 classes that got cancelled due to low enrollment, One of them was cancelled last minute! It messed up my schedule and all my childcare arrangements.2) They did not provide a practical alternative art activity, just offered money back.3) Very disappointing service from an art institution considering you get much better service and more options from just a free drop-in activity at a local library such as Fishers Librarys Ignite studio.No wonder why their enrollments are low!

The Indianapolis Art Center hosted a fantastic team building event for our group. Couldnt have been happier with the whole process. Great opportunity for our colleagues to connect with each other, and the classes were all very well delivered and received.

I hosted an event at the Indianapolis Art Center for a prominent health institute and received the best treatment by the staff and facility. 80+ chairs were set up in the library space with an AV system for the keynote speaker. The windows and skylight letting in nature and light were part of a beautiful ambiance. All the staff and namely Brylie and Abby are very professional, friendly, and accommodating. Ample and accessible parking. Plus, supporting the IAC felt great. Thank you —I’ll be back!

Recently, worked with Brylie England and the Indianapolis Art Center for a fundraiser I hosted. The venue was stunning, the guests had a wonderful time and she made the event as pain free and easy as possible :) My organization is looking at hosting another event here later this year and I would absolutely recommend to someone looking for an event venue.

I had a private group take part in their glass making and heir ceramics class. Number 1 organizing this all with the event manager was amazingly simple and they were more than willing to work with us. Number 2, the instructors were great. You can tell they thoroughly love their jobs and sharing art with others. Number 3 and most importantly, our group had an absolute blast.

We have hosted our company holiday party at the Indianapolis Art Center for many years. The staff is a delight and the accommodations are perfect for our group. Always happy to return to the Indianapolis Art Center!

We had a fundraiser at the Art Center and everything went amazing! I totally recommend using them for any events!

This is a favorite location to learn about art, watch art being created and to buy art.

Booked a workshop class a couple of months in advance. Found out shortly before I wouldnt be able to make it. I called to cancel and was told no refund since it was too close to the class date. Yes, the cancellation policy is posted. But no flexibility or consideration for unexpected life events.

Brylie and the staff at The Art Center were incredibly professional and helpful with the event we put on in both the Library and the Auditorium. I would highly suggest using The Art Center for any events you may want to host.

My 12 yr old son attend a six week woodworking class and he absolutely loved it! His teacher was very nice and seemed to enjoy teaching the students about woodworking. He would come and tell me what he learned in the class. I will be enrolling him soon in the near future for more woodworking courses.

Truly amazing. So many courses to choose from at affordable rates. They offer generous scholarships and top-notch facilities for a number of skills.

IAC directed my wife to the wrong workshop, and no roll call was taken to ensure she was in the right workshop. These mistakes were acknowledged via phone by staff afterwards and accompanied by an apology. However, they refused to refund the cost of the intended workshop despite admitting that the issue was their fault. FYI for all... IAC will not do anything but apologize if theres an issue with a class / workshop thats entirely their responsibility. Disappointing as we were going to register members of our family for other classes / workshops. That has changed and we wont be giving IAC any of our money ever again. We also dont recommend that anyone reading this do so with any confidence.

Enjoy myself

Great staff and great variety of classes with instructors who are very knowledgeable.

Attended a wedding here. Snobby, pretentious, crappy art, rude staff, no clue how to organize a wedding. The art reminded me of someone trying way, way to hard to be cool and creative. Unless you like looking at dirty socks and cigarette butts made of bees wax and a banana sitting next to a grape vine in a glass case, do not go here.

Great place to express your art side and meet new people.

Excellent creative staff. Met some pretty great friends and made a lot of connections.

Unique Indy experience. Great north broadripple experience.

My first time to visit. Truly a very nice experience.

Nice place for people to go see art.

Experience art in Indy

They put on a great art festival

Great classes and nice art to purchase.

Great place to take art classes.

Very fun

Great place to check out?

I love this place
