Our Story

In January of 2021, Kerry Kolke-Bonk and Brinna Langford realized they had the same dream of creating a space for people to create art, take classes, have time to experiment with different mediums and come together. We are currently renting the 1983 addition of the building Pioneer Public TV currently owns and used to occupy. We started holding classes and open art time in April and have been adding to the class options since.

Kerry has also been working hard on an Appleton Museum in the space we’re renting and has secured many amazing items of Appleton’s rich history. If you’d like to visit the Museum, please contact Kerry or e-mail us at appletonartandculture@gmail.com

Additionally, we’re working on acquiring and restoring the historic 1895 Appleton City Hall. More information about this will be coming. If you’d like to check out what we’re doing with the City Hall, please visit www.preserveappletonsheritage.com

If you’re interested in teaching a class or supporting Appleton Art and Culture in anyway, please reach out to Kerry or Brinna or e-mail us at appletonartandculture@gmail.com.
