The Nicolet Art Gallery is located on the first floor of the Learning Resources Center. The gallery serves as a teaching gallery with Nicolet art classes continuously using the current displays for reference and study. It also serves as a place for professional artists from the Nicolet District and beyond to display their work. Gallery hours are listed below and the gallery is also open during most Nicolet Live! theatre presentations.
The gallery schedules shows each year which function as a learning service to the area's elementary and secondary school students. In 1988, Nicolet and the Northern Arts Council began hosting the Northern National Art Competition.

Brad Davis: Paintings, A Celebration of Frogs
January 13 - February 13, 2010
Events to be announced.
"Frogs were among my first subjects when I began painting in New York in the 1990s. They symbolize healthy ecosystems and biodiversity as they love and need water but appreciate land as well. Frogs are the precious spirits dwelling in all the lakes, ponds and forests we humans are destroying - they are the gentle and persuasive reminders that life in such areas is beautiful and exotic, fragile, and often unique to that one particular place on Earth. I hope my efforts as an artist will raise awareness." – Brad Davis
