Experience Studio Place Arts (SPA), a vibrant, three-floor, non-profit community visual arts center in historic downtown Barre, Vermont. Our mission is to enrich people around the region by making the visual arts accessible to everyone through education, art exhibitions (free of charge), and contact with working artists. SPA opened its doors in 2000 following extensive renovations of a fire damaged, historic structure, the Nichols Block, which presented an opportunity to bring more creative programming to our region.
Join us and be part of a dynamic art community. We look forward to your involvement.
