Art on Main is a non-profit, community-supported, artist-cooperative gallery committed to supporting the creative endeavors of individuals in our community through the exhibition and sale of art and craft, community events and outreach, and through professional development for artists.

In the Gallery, you will discover the work of over 100 artists in a wide variety of media including painting, crafts, photography, pottery, wood, jewelry, music, and textiles and meet the cooperative artist members and community volunteers who staff our sales desk. Find us in the Deerleap Building, 25 Main Street in beautiful downtown Bristol, just a short drive from Basin Harbor and Middlebury College.

Bristol, a cozy little town nestled at the foothills of the Green Mountains, and the surrounding communities possess an incredible wealth of creative, artistic residents. This talent is evident when one strolls among the items on display at Art on Main.

A range of community events are scheduled throughout the year, including the Featured Artist Series of exhibits & receptions, the Bristol Recreation Department Clay Studio Student Show in February, the Emerging Artists (high school student) Exhibit in March, the all-ages Community Show in April, artist demonstrations during Open Studio Weekend and/or American Craft Week, our annual silent auction fundraiser during Bristol Harvest Fest, and more.
