Lancaster Art Vault (LAV) is the newest destination in downtown Lancaster’s vibrant arts scene. Our former bank building has been transformed into a stunning gallery and studio space, preserving its historical charm while showcasing contemporary art. With over 15,000 square feet of open gallery spaces and individual studios, LAV provides a breathtaking setting with high ceilings and natural light that highlights the beauty of each piece

The Lancaster Art Vault presents a trio of compelling exhibitions this month celebrating creativity, identity, and imagination.  Expressions of Strength: A Celebration of Black Art and Identity brings together the work of ten visual artists and twelve poets in a powerful multidisciplinary exhibition honoring Black voices through art and poetry. Also on view is Grandma’s Walls, a curated selection of works by celebrated artists including Charles Bibbs and Ernie Barnes, drawn from the private collection of talk-show host Beverly Smith and curated by her late brother, Lenwood Sloan. Rounding out the shows is resident artist SOOP’s Yes, And, a playful and thought-provoking mixed-media series inspired by the rules of improv, inviting viewers to reconsider what art can be—and what might come next. Exhibitions on display through February 28th, we look forward to seeing you in the galleries!
