The Arts Center at Duck Creek thrives thanks to a wide range of supporters—foundations, government agencies, and most meaningfully, the generosity of individuals from across our communities. This collective support makes it possible for Duck Creek to offer free, inclusive programming that uplifts artists, honors the East End’s cultural legacy, and brings people together through shared creative experiences. Please support us by making a donation here!

Even though our Barn doors are closed, our grounds remain open from dawn to dusk, with work by artist Fitzhugh Karol, on view through December 14, 2025.

THE ARTS CENTER AT DUCK CREEK is a vibrant, sustainable arts organization dedicated to the stewardship of Historic Duck Creek Farm as a place to inspire our community with creative programming that supports artists, celebrates diversity, and honors the East End’s cultural legacy.

Our free, inclusive programming is made possible through generous support from the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature, the Willem de Kooning Foundation, the Singer Fund and Robert and Maryann Singer, Suffolk County Legislator Ann Welker and the Department of Economic Development and Planning, the Kate W. Cassidy Foundation, and community members like you.

HISTORIC DUCK CREEK FARM is an 18th-century homestead including a farmhouse built by the Edwards family, members of the original settlers of the Maidstone Colony now known as East Hampton. The property was purchased by the Town of East Hampton with *Community Preservation Funds in 2004. Its restoration and adaptation as an arts center was spearheaded by a group of local residents, who now manage the property and its programming as a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation called The Arts Center at Duck Creek.
