Art in ouR Town

Mona Frye

It’s been a few years coming, but Springfield, VT is going to be THE place to stop in and create when you’re traveling with your family.
I’m so excited about being a part of this community experience; birthing something anyone can participate in.
Springfield on the Move has been my GO TO agency when I have creative ideas that I want to implement in town. I’m always greeted with a smile, and their response has always been, “GO FOR IT!”.
So we are! Wendi Germaine, Carol Lighthall, myself and a few others are creating a space right downtown where we can be free to create with many types of media. We’ll be teaching, we’ll be making, we’ll be offering space for those who love to create.
It’s exciting and scary at the same time because these things take money if you want to do it right! Thank God that Wendi has been doing such a great job at getting people to see our vision, and establish some buy in for this project. But we’ll need YOU – my beloved supporters of all things divinely inspired – to put your money where your mouth is and be contributors! Springfield is desperate for a breath of fresh air, and I’m here to say that I will be the change that I want to see in this town. ONE ART PROJECT AT A TIME!
Won’t you join me? Leave a comment with your email address, and we’ll talk more. Thanks everyone!!

Not quite a Vermont native, I moved here in 1987 and immediately fell in love with the beauty of the landscape; the wholesomeness of the people. Vermont artists in particular are honored for their craft; appreciated for the vision. Today, that vision has brought me to a passion for community through art projects that benefit all. I LOVE seeing small children and their parents working side by side with seasoned artists and senior citizens. There are no limits to who can participate - I've worked with former inmates yet under supervision of the Dept of Corrections, to home school networks of intuitive souls with a GREAT sense of humor! Currently, in collaboration with Springfield on the Move, and Springfield Restorative Justice Center, and several members of the community, our project is to collaborate with fellow artists of all ability levels, and create a welcoming space right in downtown Springfield, where anyone can drop in and CREATE! Either guided, or working independently, our doors will be open to grow in the arts. This community art room is called "SPRINGFIELD ART GYM: where people are welcome to exercise their creativity!" I adore making Springfield more beautiful, and bringing out the beautiful artist in everyone. Please don't be shy in contacting me. You can find me on facebook as well.
