The Arts
the
morgan
gallery
The Morgan Gallery, at the KCC, is made possible through a generous donation by the Morgan Family of Kittery, ME. The gallery space is prominently located by the STAR THEATRE and provides a new venue for showcasing works by visual artists. The KCC Visual Arts Committee is responsible for curating the programming and schedules an ongoing series of art exhibits to showcase visual artists. Professional artists are encouraged to submit works for review for future exhibits. All works are reviewed and juried by a sub-committee of the Arts and Culture committee.
This gallery is free and open to the public during KCC business hours and also open during performances in the STAR Theatre. The Morgan Gallery is located in the Kittery Community Center at 120 Rogers Road in Kittery, Maine.

Deck The Walls
Adorning the first floor hallway walls are pieces of local artwork in a more casual setting than the Morgan Gallery. This informal showing area will feature children’s artwork, as well as other local artists’ pieces. These pieces are constantly changing throughout the year.
call to artists
The Kittery Community Center invites local visual artists to submit proposals for review.
Located at 120 Rogers Road in Kittery, ME, the community center offers a state-of-the-art performing center and arts exhibition space available for artists. The proposals will be reviewed by the Visual Arts Committee responsible for curating the performance center’s programming. The Committee plans to schedule an ongoing series of month-long art exhibits at the KCC to showcase artists from the greater Kittery community and provide regional artists a brand new artistic venue.
Designated areas for the art exhibits are prominently located at the entrance to the Star Theatre and may expand to additional spaces. Selected artists will be scheduled for three-month-long exhibits of solo or group shows. If not chosen for display in the Gallery, there are other areas in the building that the Visual Arts Committee may suggest to hang your work.
Professional artists are encouraged to click here and fill out the Exhibit Proposal form and submit to Chris Luise, cluise@kitterycommunitycenter.org
