Operations Statement:

The Lyndon House Arts Center is operated by the Athens-Clarke County Department of Leisure Services as a center of artistic excellence for the benefit and cultural enrichment of youth and adults. Gallery exhibitions, festivals, workshops, art meetings, special events and art classes aim to provide area citizens with a positive experience in the visual arts, encouraging them to appreciate the arts and to develop their creative talents.

The Lyndon House Arts Center places importance on education and outreach, arts activities which reflect the values of integrity, quality, diversity and creativity held by the community. These values serve as a guide for the selection and exhibition of artwork for the galleries. 

The Lyndon House Arts Center reserves the right to present in a controlled access area, or to deny exhibition of any material which may not be appropriate for all audiences. Children visiting the galleries must be accompanied and supervised by an adult for the safety of the artwork and for artwork content.
