The Maple Grove Arts Center is a 501c3 nonprofit arts center.

Our mission is: To inspire creativity, foster community and enrich lives through art.

The arts center’s vision: To become a vibrant inclusive arts center, developing artistic passion to empower our community.

The Maple Grove Arts Center (MGAC) features a beautifully curated gallery that hosts seven themed exhibitions each year, each celebrated with a special opening night event. Our spacious facility also offers a dynamic range of arts education programs, with classes designed to inspire and support emerging, novice, and established artists alike.

MGAC is proud to extend its mission beyond the gallery through a variety of outreach programs. Each summer, we participate in community celebrations with the Arbor Lakes Art Fair and Chalkfest. Our Business of Art initiative brings local artwork into area businesses, giving artists unique opportunities to showcase their work in individual settings. We also partner with District 279 to host the annual Student Art Show at the Maple Grove Government Center, where MGAC awards the Jacob Beneke Arts Scholarship to a graduating senior pursuing art in college.
