Arts at NNC
NNC provides arts programming that fosters both individual growth and community resiliency. Our model for community engagement blends art, science and dialogue to facilitate robust, inclusive community learning that can be applied to everyday life. This art-infused approach focuses on creative self-expression and a sharing of knowledge. The process offers fresh ways to communicate, problem solve and inform personal and community values and choices. The center’s four gallery spaces host a variety of solo and group exhibits throughout the year. NNC works in partnership with regional organizations to further promote the arts within the community

Sun Power June 7th 1 pm (Scott Park, Easton, PA)
This time of year we get a lot more time with the sun – days are longer and temperatures high as we near the summer solstice (June 20). To celebrate the power of the sun, we will be observing the sun with a special solar telescope and talking about solar energy! Sunlight can power the world, in fact it already does!
