    Art Gallery

    Our Art Gallery exhibitions promote a wide variety of art ~ from emerging artist to those well along their artistic
     journey in shows at rural galleries such as ours  and on their way to exhibiting at galleries in larger centers. 
    With the 8 to 10 shows we host during each year, we exhibit works in a variety of mediums and styles so that
    our gallery viewers experience a broad range of artistic expression.  Click on Art Gallery-Exhibitions for the
    line-up of our upcoming shows.

    The Gallery is open Monday through Friday from noon to 5pm (closed for holidays), or by special appointment.
