Welcome to Your Community Arts Center! 

Main Street Arts is a non-profit arts center dedicated to serving the creative needs of our greater community. We seek to encourage creative expression through a wide range of artistic experiences. The center is located in the heart of the village of Saxtons River, Vermont and is celebrating 25 years in 2013.

Capital Campaign Updates 5/2013

Architectural Plans: Since January, Stevens & Associates of Brattleboro, VT has been working with a committee of the MSA Board to create final architectural drawings for the renovations and addition to our building. The design is not finished yet, but we are close! We'll announce an open house to view the plans when they are finalized.

Matching Grant Challenge: We're 1/3 of the way through 3013 and we've raised 1/3 of the money towards our matching donations challenge. HELP US TOWARDS OUR GOAL of raising $30,000 (which will be matched 1:1 by an additional $30,000) by the end of the year.

Brownfields Update: With the assistance of KAS Environmental, we have completed a Phase II Environmental Assessment of the 33 Main Site (the now empty lot next door).  We have just been awarded funding from the Windham Regional Commission to complete a correction action plan for the site.  Thank you Windham Regional!

Our Capital Campaign Needs You!

Moving Forward, Moving Up is MSA’s exciting and bold capital campaign to expand our original building, acquire adjoining property, and add an elevator and accessible bathroom. We are committed to meeting the creative needs of all community members and helping to revitalize Main Street in Saxtons River. Our financial goal is comprehensive: $875,000. We have already raised 75% this goal, but we need your continued support to reach 100% and keep us operating during our renovations.
