Leighton Art Centre (LAC) is a non-profit public art gallery, museum and education centre near the hamlet of Millarville, Alberta, south of Calgary that was established in 1974.

In 1974, she incorporated the Leighton Foundation to operate the gallery and museum to exhibit his work along with other Albertan artists. The centre was designated as a Provincial Historic Resource on 7 May 2009.
