The North Hills Art Center supports local artists in a variety of ways.

We provide a vibrant gallery to showcase artwork throughout the year. We also provide the opportunity for emerging artists and local arts groups to rent our gallery space and hold their own private shows.

Members of the NHAC enjoy lower fees when entering shows and taking classes.  They also enjoy discounts at a local framing shop, and they are the first to know about upcoming events via our email newsletter.  Members also qualify for free entry into our Holiday Artisan Market.

Gallery Viewing Hours:

Weekdays 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM

Tuesday Evening 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM

NEXT SHOW: PITTSBURGH WATERCOLOR SOCIETY

We offer discounted gallery rental rates for emerging artists!

Call or email the office for details.
