The Dairy Barn Arts Center
The Adventure…
Built in 1914, the historic barn was scheduled for demolition in the 1970s. However, local residents and artists rallied together to save the historic landmark. Today, the Dairy Barn is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Center features a 6500-square-foot gallery and is home to a diverse array of exhibitions, festivals, and educational programs. Two of the center’s most celebrated shows, the Quilt National and Bead International, are widely recognized and represent the cutting edge of their mediums.
