Heeschen Gallery
The

media. Multiple shows each year
highlight the artwork of local artists. Types of
displays are: painting, photography, soft sculpture, computer graphic art,
pottery, weaving,
and more.
Ceiling mounted track lighting and pristine white
backgrounds combine to create an artistic ambiance
pleasurable to the most
discriminating viewer. Stop by the Meadville Council on the Arts for a gallery
visit
for each of these gallery exhibitions:
Gardner Theater
The Meadville Council on the Arts area contains a very quaint theatre,
seen pictured here.
But you have to actually stand in the theatre to experience the warmth that will surround you. Two
very old wooden pillars border the stage area, track lighting can transform the theatre atmosphere
in a variety of ways. Feel free to stop by for a visit. You'll leave with a newfound understanding of
just how precious this community gem can truly be.
Dance Studio
The Meadville
Council on the Arts facility contains a clean, well lit, spacious
dance studio suitable for yoga, dance, receptions, meetings and other events.
In the picture below some young guitar students share a lighter moment during
their instrumental practice in the dance studio area.
