Open Studio - Fountain House Studio

Join us at the Studio to celebrate the accomplishments of our resident artists. Light refreshments will be served.


“As we move into the season of gratitude we at Fountain House Studio have much to be grateful for and much to celebrate. Since relocating to this larger space our five permanent resident artists have continued to produce work that delights and awes. These five permanent artists have been joined by our spring summer and fall rotating resident artists. Participation has doubled and this shows on the Studio walls arrayed with a wealth of textures and a burst of colors. Our artists are motivated and inspired and they motivate and inspire each other. We are grateful to our supporters without whom we would not have achieved this milestone.”

- Karen Gormandy Studio Director
