The Capitol of Southeast Ohio Art

Nelsonville's Historic Square Arts District has been recognized by art enthusiasts across the nation as an art lover's paradise.

Just over five years ago the storefronts in Nelsonville's Historic Public Square were empty. Today dozens of studio galleries, antique stores and gift shops line the streets.

All feature the work of area artisans who you can usually watch making art on the spot. Feeling creative? Sign up for a workshop, demonstration or private lesson.
