A place where creativity flows.
Founded in 2000 in the heart of Allegany County, NY.
Building community and enriching lives in Western NY through the arts since 2000.
Set between Chautauqua and the Finger Lakes, The Fountain Arts Center is quietly nestled in a peaceful, rural setting that offers a refreshing oasis for creative minds and a retreat from the hectic pace of urban life.
Our not-for-profit organization began as a ten-year journey to preserve a collapsing historic architectural gem doomed for demolition. Today, the restored main street building has been host to hundreds of outreach programs, art and music classes, and exhibitions.
We aim to introduce emerging artists to the public, offer support and encouragement to struggling creatives, help our community discover their hidden talents, and provide a wholesome place of entertainment for all ages.
As a non-profit organization, our ability to promote cultural and performing arts is a combination of volunteer work, community donations, word-of-mouth awareness, and government grants.
