Annette & Dale Schuh Riverfront Arts Center
Established in 1999 by the City of Stevens Point under the auspices of the Stevens Point Arts Council, the Riverfront Arts Center's gallery hosts art exhibits and workshops in a variety of media. The Riverfront Arts Center (RAC) is a not-for-profit arts organization whose mission is to support local and regional artists by providing exhibition opportunities. The RAC seeks to educate and enrich our community through the exhibition of local art and culture. The RAC receives funding from an Arts Endowment, a small portion of hotel room tax, and from fundraisers and donations.
Hours
Wednesday - Friday: 11 am – 5 pm
Saturday & Sunday: 11 am – 3 pm
Closed on holidays and between exhibits.
Admission is Free!

Did you know?
Sponsorships, donations, fundraisers, art sales, and volunteers are the lifeblood that allows us to operate at no cost to visitors. Our Gift Gallery supports approximately 100 artists through consignment sales and offers a unique selection of art and handmade gifts and cards. In 2012, we initiated a gift area called the RAC Shop, with cards and gifts available all year. The community and schools benefit from your support through collaborative projects with the RAC, such as the Emerging Artists Exhibit and the opportunity for classes to visit to learn about art.
