About Us
History
Goshen Art House has been a staple 501C3 non-profit in the Goshen, Indiana community for more than 20 years. Beginning as New World Players in 1998, the organization was founded as a space for Goshen thespians to perform and curate original works. The organization then changed its name to New World Arts in the early 2000s to open its doors to a variety of local arts and artists. Now, the organization operates as Goshen Art House, taking its residence in the historical downtown theater, the Goshen Theater. As the artist in residence, Goshen Art House hosts monthly events at the Goshen Theater and utilizes office space in the building.
Who We Are
Goshen Art House is run by its Executive Director and a working board of eight individuals with backgrounds and passions in the arts. Goshen Art House has a robust calendar of events, all produced by board members and the ED, that showcase and collaborate with regional artists of all specialties.
Our Mission

Upcoming Events
