Spotlight On: Spitzer Art Center’s New Shop!
The Spitzer Art Center has recently opened up a new space for local artists to sell their items.

The Center is truly for and about artists - offering exhibition space, studio rental, and classes. They help connect local artists with the community through various programs, workshops, and member showcases. Check out their space if you're an artist, or just a community member looking to become involved in the local arts scene!
