Adventures & Art

About This Business

Adventures & Art is a vibrant Center for Creativity nestled in Caledonia, NY, serving the Greater Rochester Area. With a rich history dating back to its soft-opening in 2011, the center has been passionately brought to life by Emily Mattice Roll, who envisioned a space where individuals could express themselves and explore the arts through hands-on projects. Over the past 13 years, Adventures & Art has experienced continual growth, adapting to the needs of its community, especially during the strategic pivots of 2020-2022. Today, the center proudly offers a diverse range of creative programs and events in visual arts, theater, STEM, music, movement, and integrated enrichment activities. These programs are designed to inspire and enrich the lives of participants and the surrounding community. Adventures & Art operates with regular hours for visiting, independent creating, and shopping, although hours can be extended by chance or appointment. The center also accommodates private parties and workshops beyond listed hours, providing a flexible and welcoming environment for all. One of the flagship programs, 'SPLAT,' an art class, has been a cornerstone of the center's offerings since its inception. As the center looks to the future, it remains committed to its mission of fostering creativity and self-expression. With its Creative Café and shop open from 2 pm to 8 pm, Adventures & Art invites the community to explore its space, engage in creative activities, and experience the transformative power of art. Through its dedication to providing a variety of opportunities for creative growth, Adventures & Art has become an integral part of the local community, offering a unique blend of artistic expression, education, and community engagement. Whether through regular programs, special events, or private bookings, Adventures & Art stands as a testament to the impact of creativity and imagination on individual and community development. As it moves forward, the center is poised to continue inspiring and enriching the lives of those it serves, remaining a beacon for artistic exploration and expression in the Greater Rochester Area.
