Congratulations to Sondra Fox on the piece she has exhibiting at the Shadowbox Live Theater with the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators.  Her work will be on display through the end of December.

Confused by all the logos? 

The Gallery on High is composed of two "spaces". The main gallery space (5 E. High St.) is where exhibits and special displays are shown. Classes and informal gatherings are held right next door in Studio 7 (7 E High St.). The two spaces are connected inside and also have separate entrances on the street.

London Visual Arts Guild is the non-profit/charitable, 501(c)(3) artist organization which runs the Gallery on High and Studio 7. We recruit artists, then schedule, hang and publicize the exhibits, and keep the Gallery open.  We also organize, teach and publicize all classes held in Studio 7.  LVAG is an all-volunteer organization which runs the Gallery and Studio 7 using only volunteer hours.

We'd Love Your Cans!!

Drop off your aluminum cans at the Gallery on High.  Proceeds are used to defray class costs. 

Thank you for thinking of us!
