Our Sign, Finally Installed-Hand Painted and Full of Memories


Gallery Opening
Village Artists Members (L to R)  
 Anne Goldsmith, Sharon Lorsch, Richard Brennan,  Sallie Pasquinelli, Joyce Riley
We thought you might like to see a photo of some of our members in front of our new store front, 1957 Ridge Road location.  Our hand painted sign which has become our unofficial Village Artist's logo and appears on our website and pamphlets has finally been hung atop our building!
  This sign was displayed for years and hung outside of our house in Flossmoor on Berry Lane.  It became a little worse for wear, weather beaten and chippy.   The ladies refurbished it with a little sweat equity (sanding, scraping, and painting). Thanks ladies- it looks GREAT.

Come and join the fun, our membership is open.
Please call or visit our website for more info. 
We always look forward to meeting new artists!

Members working on new art

Wednesdays are busy days at the studio, painters and potters use this day to work on art and share their latest information.  The Village Artists are a group of artists and a non-profit working art studio/ gallery.  We share the space and have comradeship with fellow artists.
Carol Downs, a potter, was working on an interesting piece today.   A custom order incense burner, one cannot wait to see the final product!

Here Carol displays one of her beautiful bowls.  This glaze has flecks of green and gold. Lovely.


Joyce Riley is always working on a new project.  Look for Joyce at local Farmers Markets this summer.
Here is one of her lovely platters.

Wednesdays are good days to work on new art as well as sharing lunch with friends!
Come and join the fun.  We are accepting new members.  Please contact us by calling the gallery and visiting our website at

Our gallery is open to the public the first Saturday of every month.
