Vermont Artisan Designs

Fine art and contemporary American craft.

The time is flying by!! It won’t be long until Thanksgiving is here — and, although it’s been a relatively mild fall, the ski areas are prepping for a busy holiday season. Festive lights in the gallery windows aren’t too far behind. New artwork is arriving almost daily and the gift-wrapping department is ready to rock!

Vermont Artisan Designs is grateful for 50-plus years of service to the American art and craft community and their collectors. In addition to the main floor craft gallery, there are 11 small art galleries around a central gallery on the second level. A variety of activities at the gallery and our hometown of Brattleboro, VT, are ongoing.

For the month of November, the work of artists Jacqueline Jones and Ken Demers is featured in Gallery 2. Both Jacqueline and Ken work in oils and paint the New England landscape and seascape. December’s featured artists are Caryn King, whose whimsical animal portraits in oil and prints on board are hard to resist, and glass artist Josh Simpson, whose work the gallery has been displaying for more than 35 years.  The monthly Gallery Walk in Brattleboro is on Friday, Dec. 6.  Put it on your calendar!

Special collections of pastels and oil paintings by Wolf Kahn and Eric Aho are also on display and for sale in the gallery along with the works of more than 300 artisans and artists.

We invite you to visit when you’re in Brattleboro and to take a look at our website (www.vtart.com) which is continually changing. And, check out vtartisandesigns on Instagram and Vermont Artisan Designs on Facebook.
