Your Gift Makes A Difference

Operating Costs

MAC’s historic location houses an education wing, four art galleries and a historic permanent collection. Our galleries are open seven days a week, and free to the public.

Outreach Programs

MAC gives children with academic challenges a path to success through arts educatio. MAC educators work with over 1,500 students each year. Our Artist in Residency Program at the Interdistrict School for Arts and Communication in New London, places a MAC faculty member at the middle school for six weeks to work in-depth with students on art projects related to classroom subjects.

Studio Art Classes & Public Programs

MAC offers classes for all ages with a rich array of topics, including: Pastel Painting, Alternative Acrylics, Digital Photography, Interior Design, Yoga & Art for children, among others.  Public programs include our popular Artini Hour and Art After Dark.

Exhibitions

MAC hosts 15 exhibitions a year, including many juried shows with prizes.

Centennial Exhibition & Catalog

In 2013, MAC will celebrate its 100th year. To celebrate this milestone, MAC will host a special centennial exhibit “Mystic as Muse: 100 Years of Inspiration”. To accompany the exhibit we will publish a special catalog, based on research from our archives that will reveal the story of MACs founding artists.

Capital Expenses

Mystic Arts Center, built in the early 1930’s, is showing its age. The most immediate need is a new roof; the existing one is worn and we have sprung a few small leaks in, which must be addressed soon to avoid any further damage to the building.
