Fleisher Art Memorial
BELLA VISTA
The Samuel S. Fleisher Art Memorial is guided by the spirit of
its founder, who first extended an invitation in 1898 for "the
world to come and learn art." Samuel Fleisher's singular vision
of high-quality, tuition-free art instruction continues uninterrupted
at the Memorial.
Here, children from all economic and cultural backgrounds share
in the commonality of the creative experience and the cultural
diversity of the city. Adult artists of all levels of experience
study with a distinguished faculty of working artists in diverse
fine-arts mediums such as painting, drawing, sculpture, printmaking,
photography, and ceramics.
Fleisher's Romanesque-revival sanctuary provides an evocative,
expanded musical and performance context for the understanding
of time-based arts and the many meanings of culture.
