  It sure exceeded my expectations from a free art center in Vermont, there were some good indoor exhibit but what impresed me was the spacious outdoor area and all its carefully placed exhibits. Free parking, indoor restroom, fully air conditioned indoor exhibit, of course, you could make a donation if you like.

  We had a wonderful afternoon at the Southern Vermont Arts Center. Our family enjoyed being able to get up close to the sculptures around the property and the main photography exhibit was stunningly beautiful and complex. Instamax cameras were given out to the kids so that the could experience photography. A beautiful, short trail leads out from a second building housing galleries that display the work of local artists.
