their creative talents.
The Lyndon House Arts Center also places importance on youth education and outreach arts activities which reflect the values of
integrity, quality, diversity and creativity held by our community. These values serve as a guide for the selection and exhibition of
artwork for the galleries. As a local government program 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 art work content.

Council for the Arts (GCA) through the appropriations of the Georgia General Assembly. GCA is a partner agency of the National
Endowment for the Arts.
