Today, with over twenty artist studios and galleries in town, there is enough variety to suit any taste or budget - from folk and fabric artists to potters and painters; sculptors and jewelers and more! Brandon's most famous artist, Warren Kimble, closed his gallery / museum in January, 2006. However, Warren can be found around town helping other artists, working at the Brandon Artists Guild, helping with committees, and having a good time. Warren's original artwork and signed prints are now available at the Liza Myers Gallery & Studio.
Brandon, Vermont's artists are at it again. Brandon's Sunflower Power Has Burst Forth!
Last year saw fields of sunflowers sparkling in the fields around town. Now they have sprouted in the village itself! Over 80 wooden sunflowers, 36 inches in diameter have been cut out and painted by the members of the Brandon Artists Guild and have popped up all over town.
Sunflowers have all kinds of benefits - they provide food, fuel, fertilizer, and now fun! Come to Brandon and see the sunflowers everywhere. You might just end up buying one for yourself! Contact the Brandon Artists Guild at 802 247-4956 for more information.
