Kasini House is preparing the 2009 edition of the Vermont Art Guide and we want to hear from you about places to see contemporary art in Vermont: artist studios, art galleries, museums, cafés, libraries, restaurants, banks, etc. If you are an artist with a studio that is open to the public, either with regular hours or by appointment, we would like to hear from you and list your studio in the guide.

ABOUT THE 2009 VERMONT ART GUIDE
The Vermont Art Guide is a comprehensive guide to the state's art scene. Our goal is to include information on every place to see art in the state. The annual book features listings, reviews, and in-depth articles on places to see art and the people who make it. The guide offers visiting information and a description of the sort of art one can expect for each gallery, studio, and art space in the book. Community art centers and significant points of interest are discussed in greater detail. The venues are organized by region and the Vermont Art Guide includes a thorough index for easy searching. The Vermont Art Guide is a testament to the vibrancy and diversity of contemporary art in Vermont.

Using the guidelines below, please email us your information. If you are recommending a venue, please include the name of the venue, its location and a contact name, email or website.

Send the information to info@kasinihouse.com
