Youth Art classes are offered throughout the school year. Summer is dedicated to our youth with many Summer Camp programs offered at the Rockmart Cultural Arts Center and The Rockmart Theatre. Each camp ends with a Youth Art Exhibit or Performance by the students. Camps are taught by professional educators in their field.
We offer a RCAC Fine Arts Scholarship each year to a senior who will be majoring in the Fine Arts. We have a booth at local festivals with fun art activities for the children. The community often participates in projects sponsored by RCAC such as the 125th Anniversary Mural .
