The free event includes a Holiday Art Sale, Community Class demos, Family Art Workshop, Direct from the Classroom: Fall Selections art show, Teen Mural Club unveiling, Peruvian food truck Mikhuna, and artist talk in the gallery for the current exhibition, RED EARTH GAZE.

Open Studios Day is a free, all-ages event that provides the public a glimpse into the process, art, and lives of local artists who create at the Center. AGCC hosts one of the largest studio artist programs in the region with a diverse range of artistic disciplines including ceramics, photography, printmaking, writing, sculpture, videography, music, and painting. This self-guided tour of artist studios provides a unique opportunity to interact with the artists and purchase contemporary works of art.
