Northern Comforts

Rutland, VT:  The Chaffee Art Center, Your Center for Creativity, invites the community to our Northern Comforts Exhibit Opening Reception on Friday, February 21st from 5pm to 7pm.  Mingle with artists and the community, while enjoying delicious food tastings, punch, wine and live music.  There is no charge for admittance. 

Please plan on joining us to experience the beauty of the arts and the talented artists in our communities whose works will be on display throughout our historic mansion until March 20th.

This exhibit will feature works from the Maple Leaf Quilters Guild in three of our first-floor galleries.  The upstairs galleries will showcase juried member artists.  

As we celebrate 59 years as an art center in the Rutland Community, we also invite you to join as an artist, single or family member to help the Chaffee to continue to inspire and cultivate creativity, while positively impacting the vitality of our community through the arts. 

Visit the Chaffee during open hours to experience the magnificent architecture of the historic building and the wonderful works of art throughout.  While here, picture your next event, bridal shower, wedding, meeting or retreat being held in our beautiful 1890’s mansion, fondly known by its first owners as Sunny Gables.
