Montpelier Art Walk is happening now!

We’ve got artist Nicole Vance’s work in the gallery and she’s outside facilitating a hands-on project. Make a collage and trade for one on the board - it’s community art!

We’re open until 7:00, so come by and get creative!

Calling all Laura Zindel Design fans - we just started carrying new items at the gallery that just might be (or hold) your cup of tea!

We added bistro plates and cups, which means that you can now eat and drink in smaller quantities whenever you like.

Bistro plates measure 7.25", which is perfect the perfect size for your morning muffin or afternoon apple. Bistro cups measure 3.5" and hold 7 ounces of liquid - mmm...juice...

We've got these cuties in your favorite designs, so come downtown and add to your set (or start one)!

Laura Zindel Design is located in Brattleboro, Vermont.

Art you can wear! The air has cooled off a bit, and one of Maggie Neale’s cocoons is the perfect top layer. The hand painted silk has a light feel, and these pieces of wearable art can be dressed up or down beautifully!
Added accessories by Lochlin Smith (necklace) & Amy Dalton (earrings). 🙌
