BigTown Gallery, and it's non-profit, BigTown Projects, Inc. explores the local impact of creative economy. Our programming seeks to highlight accomplished and well-established artists for general appreciation, enjoyment and investment.
Gallery owner, Anni Mackay, has for the past decade devoted her energies to bringing the arts together with community. Each gallery's space and its featured exhibitions, performance art, and reading series are the culmination-to-date of an uncompromising belief in the soundness of that partnership.
The BigTown Galleries, offer a full spectrum of visual, literary, and performing arts with their year-round exhibit schedule, Summer Reading Series, and performing arts events. Programming is presented by the Gallery’s non-profit 501c3 tax deductible sister-entity, BigTown Projects, and is generously supported by loyal audience members and partners; all free (unless noted otherwise) and open to the public. The Bigtown Projects events are currently held at BigTown Gallery Rochester, located in the heart of Vermont, on RT 100 at 99 North Main, Rochester.
Since 2003, BigTown Gallery ROCHESTER has brought to central Vermont exhibitions by artists deeply dedicated to an exploration of what fine art means: both to create and to experience.
In April 2017, BigTown Gallery is expanding to VERGENNES and opening it's doors next to the Vergennes Laundry. We are delighted to unify our commitment to the arts in Vermont with a second brick-and-mortar location in the Champlain Valley. The BigTown Galleries couldn't be more excited to be joining Vergennes' vibrant downtown scene. Grand Opening Reception Saturday, May 13th, 2017. Come say hello!
