In 1999, a group of five women who met in a watercolor class began to meet regularly to paint. They dreamt of having a place where artists could meet, show their work, hold classes and promote the arts in this coastal community.
Pooling their talents and money, they rented space at 800 Evans Street and the dream became a reality.
Today, the co-op continues to nurture emerging artists, gives them an opportunity to show and sell their work. The Gallery enjoys a steady stream of visitors. Vacationers and local residents purchase art and gifts. Non member artists frequently stop in for inspiration.
