Exhibits:
The Troy-Hayner Cultural Center has a temporary exhibit space in the main house where approximately eight exhibits are presented each year. Artist talks, workshops and tours are sometimes offered in connection with the exhibitions. Exhibits range from fine arts to history to cultural exhibitions. During the month of December the entire house is decorated for the holidays with an annual two-day open house event on the first full weekend.
New for 2009 is the utilization of the art studio as a wall to feature the talented instructors who offer classes to the public in their medium. Current and past student works are also included in the exhibit space.
