Fremont Center for the Arts

Explore Canon City's creative side at this community arts center featuring rotating exhibitions, classes, and cultural events.

What to See

Getting Involved

Beyond viewing art, visitors can participate through classes and workshops offered for various skill levels. It's a chance to create your own mountain-inspired art or learn a new craft. The gift shop offers locally made items for those seeking meaningful souvenirs.
