The Gallery
The Loyal Jones Appalachian Center Gallery is a great place to start your quest to learn or teach about Appalachia. The Gallery is a quickly transformable multi-functional space serving as a visitor center, classroom, exhibition space, student hangout, theater, and performance hall.
The Gallery is open to public visitors on weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., but may be closed without notice for use by courses, special events, or on Berea College holidays. The exhibits are self-guided, but facilated visits are available to groups and classes. To plan your visit you may email Heather Dent at denth@berea.edu or call 859-985-3140. You can also sign up for our monthly newsletter The Gravy Infusion to stay up to date on upcoming events and opportunities.
