Art in the Kasieta Center
The Kasieta Center displays the work of local artists on a rotating basis. The current installation is the work of students of Inventiva Works, the only organization in Madison offering art and theater classes for adults and children in Spanish. With the assistance of a Dane Arts grant, Inventiva Works students painted 10 pieces with a cultural food theme that will be on display permanently at BPNN.
About the Kasieta Center
The Kasieta Center (pronounced “ka-shet-a”) is a 4,800 square foot event space built as a gathering place for career training opportunities, community gatherings and fundraising events. It was funded with public and private money, including a $2 million grant from Dane County.
Partnering with workforce development partners and other groups engaged in fighting poverty, the Kasieta Center provides a location for educational classes and job fairs.
