ARTclub
The ARTclub is an organization that encourages support and opportunities for students engaged in art making. Members promote a creative culture at Kenyon College through exhibitions, performance, and other events they develop in a collaborative environment.
The Craft Center
Kenyon's Craft Center provides space for visual arts production and informal instruction in a range of areas, including bookmaking, ceramics, glasswork, knitting, quilting, jewelry making, photography, stained glass, and woodworking. Most programs are free or low cost, and the center is open seven days a week during the College year.
Horn Gallery for the Arts
The Horn Gallery was founded in 1994 by students to showcase their artistic talents. Since then, the Horn has evolved into a popular student organization, a gathering place where Kenyon community members exchange ideas; share knowledge; and enjoy art shows, performances, plays, readings, weekly coffeehouses, and student-band practices.
