Celebrating 10 Years of Local Art, Local Hands, Local Heart.

This year marks the 10th Anniversary of a lot of special things at The Artisans Village.  Our artist Guild turns 10 as well as three of our flagship art events/competitions including The Annual Lake Country Juried Art Show.  We can’t wait to celebrate with you!  Everyone is invited to attend the opening reception of the 10th Annual Lake Country Juried Art Show at Barrel 118 on Thursday, June 25 from 5 – 7:30 pm.  We’re planning a weekend full of reasons to come out and support the arts while the show is on display at Barrel 118 before moving to the Gallery.  This is your chance to meet the artists, see (and purchase) amazing new works of art, and celebrate local creativity.

Congratulations to all of the Artists that were juried into this show.

We had many new artists enter, and several joined the Guild!  Totals for this year are as follows: 165 entries from 66 artists. And of those entries, we had 95 works of art juried into this year’s show. 2025 totals were 162 entries from 61 artists.

Exposed brick, original hardwood floors, 15’ arched windows, high ceilings, and wood beams are just some of the charm you’ll find.
