We will be hosting a performance of "Cyrano" on January 16th, 3:00 in the gallery. Seating is limited, so order tickets in advance.

We're OPEN!

The official ribbon-cutting ceremony was held September 19th, just before our annual Fun Razer event. What a beautiful evening at 6980 Cambridge Avenue. Mariemont's Town Crier, Hank Kleinfeldt, called the assembly to order. Boy Scout Troop 149 lead the scores of Barn supporters and friends in our Pledge of Allegiance, and past Foundation President, Jane McDonald, made introductions. We'd like to thank the Lindner Family, for their generosity and vision, The Ohio Cultural Facilities Commission and leadership in Columbus for their support and belief in us, and the Mariemont Preservation Foundation for their guidance.

Aren't the pictures great?

Classes for Kids!

Kids are having great fun in the summer classes at the Barn. June and July have been busy with children who are drawing and painting - even doing sculpture! Lynn Hogan is pictured top left assisting a student with her faux metal figurine. Top right, Diana Taylor discusses the black lady bug with a budding artist. At bottom left, the artist shows off her landscape without the lady bug, and teacher Judy Perkins observes.
