History
The Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center at Colorado College grew out of and expanded on the mission of the esteemed Broadmoor Art Academy, established in 1919, to become one of the only multi-discipline arts institutions in the nation. Today the FAC remains an amazing rarity—a museum, theater, and art school—essentially an entire arts district, under one roof. The FAC is a pillar in the cultural community of the Rocky Mountain West providing innovative, educational, and multi-disciplinary arts experiences designed to elevate the individual spirit and inspire community vitality.
Museum
The 132,286 square-foot facility hosts numerous exhibitions each year, many featuring works from the FAC’s significant permanent collection, bringing a wide variety of art experiences to Colorado Springs.
Theatre
The award-winning and critically acclaimed Fine Arts Center Theatre Company produces an annual season of musicals, comedies, and dramas and has gained a reputation for high-quality productions and Colorado premieres of new American work.
Art School
Bemis School of Art offers art classes for the Colorado Springs community for all ages, artistic interests, and skill levels. Experienced artists and art instructors, large studios, and limited class size create a motivational and supportive environment to explore and develop your creative talents.
