Canal Street Art Gallery was started to meet the need for an independent full time Gallery in the Town of Rockingham, Vermont. In doing so, it has provided the opportunity for many artists in the area to exhibit in a centralized location. Visitors feel it is a beautiful space along the canal for creative incubation, conversation and the appreciation of fine art. The Gallery’s roster of represented artists and artwork continues to expand, as does the breadth of the audience appreciating and collecting art from all the exhibiting artists! Looking forward to their fifth year, Canal Street Art Gallery remains as passionate and excited as ever to continue sharing and appreciating new art while helping to support the artists who create it.
To raise awareness and money for public art, this Holiday Season the Gallery is donating 1% of profits given to a fund for the maintenance of existing public art in The Town of Rockingham. Recognizing the abundance of historic monuments, sculptures and murals in the town, the Gallery hopes this will continue the effort to increase appreciation for Rockingham’s public art and raise money for needed restoration and annual upkeep. In support of this, artists will include work in the show which is appropriately sized and priced for gifts, offering selected artworks priced under $100, $50, and $25.
Canal Street Art Gallery is located at 23 Canal Street in the Historic Downtown Village of Bellows Falls, Vermont, and is open Wednesday to Saturday from 11:00am to 5:00pm.
