Although Schneller Art Gallery isn’t open during the winter months, it’s been a busy winter helping Downtown Art Place (DAP) get off the ground.  Ar Schneller is even teaching a few workshops there!   It’s a great building in downtown Ironwood with a ton of potential for artists and the community. We are starting to see great things happen there.  Peg Sandin, a beautiful watercolorist is teaching classes there in March and April

We have over 140 artists on our database and are excited to be reaching out to them with an open house in March. The two handicap bathrooms were recently completed in the DAP, we even have a work sink.  Life is good.

DAP recently was awarded a $ 1940 grant from Michigan Council of Arts.  They will be able to offer a nice selection of classes and workshops at the DAP. We have a big event planned for Sat March 16th, see you then!  Watch for updates on www.downtownartplace.net  and you can email them at downtownartplace@gmail.com
