ArtWorks!, Partners For The Arts And Community

Who We Are

Located in an historic 130 year old building in downtown New Bedford, our four floors are filled with galleries, classrooms, a ceramic studio, teen arts center, and an audio-visual computer lab. The Artist Guild at ArtWorks! Gallery is a partnership with ArtWorks! and features fine art and craft in a retail setting created by regional artists and artisans. Exhibitions change every six to eight weeks, and are open free of charge to the public daily, Tuesday through Saturday. Throughout the year, arts education classes, artist talks, special events and workshops are planned to compliment and expand our exhibits. ArtWorks! is a special place to experience the creative process, meet working artists and make or buy a work of art of your own!
