About
Art for everybody, made right here
Hometown Arts is a scrappy, joyful council of painters, potters, poets and pickers. We turned a shuttered textile mill into studios, a gallery and a stage, and we keep the lights on with ticket sales, tuition and a lot of bake sales.
42classes a season
310member artists
18exhibits a year
52weeks of open mic
Classes
The Old Mill Gallery
Brick walls, tall windows and a ceiling you can hang a kayak from. We show new work from local artists every six weeks, and admission is always free.
- Opening receptions the first Friday of each show
- Artists keep 80 percent of every sale
- Student shows each spring
I sold my first painting here at 61. Now I teach Tuesdays and the waiting list is longer than the class.Dolores, member artist
