We are a community-based not-for-profit that educates, encourages and inspires all people to create and enjoy the arts. Established in 1970 as the Genesee Street Corporation, The Flower City Arts Center is located in an historic firehouse, built in 1895-1905. We are the only community visual arts center located within the City of Rochester. The Flower City Arts Center offers programs in three visual arts areas: Printmaking & Book Arts, Ceramics, and Photography & Digital Arts. We produce youth programs, classes and workshops, provide facilities to our studio artists, and exhibit work in our galleries. Our photography, ceramics and book arts programs are available to community members of all ages, incomes and backgrounds.
