“Creation of the Hamilton Regional Arts Center advances the missions and enhances the services of both The Exhibition Alliance (TEA) and Colgate University. The Center will serve the Central New York region, as well as draw artists from the downstate area who are seeking affordable and accessible storage and studio facilities. The Center will serve as a nexus, enriching the cultural life of the regional community and providing a venue for educational and cultural experiences for students, residents and visitors to the area. Additionally, the Center will serve as a focal point for local artists and collectors, who will benefit from increased access to both exhibition and safe storage space.”
