What's Good

You can’t walk a block in this town without bumping into somebody’s original art — nearly every store and café has some on display. Here’s a list of art-only destinations.

Pine Street Art Works

They show and sell contemporary art, furniture and vintage accessories in the colorful building next to Speeder & Earl’s coffee shop.

Pursuit Gallery

  • 1 Steele Street, Wing Building, Burlington, VT, 05401
  • 802-862-3883

Looking for skater and graffiti art? Find it at Pursuit. This wedge-shaped gallery on the Burlington Bike Path is home to Driven Studios, a multimedia design agency that specializes in youth culture. Designer Seth Neary (pictured) and photographer Skye Chalmers have worked with Burton Snowboards, Gravis, Red Bull and Analog. They showcase work by urban artists you wouldn’t expect to see in the Green Mountain State. And their art openings are just an excuse to host a party. .

Rose Street Artists' Co-op

Co-op residents curate this community gallery in the Old North End.

Sanctuary Artsite

  • 47 Maple Street, Burlington, VT, 05401
  • 802-864-5884

This on-again-off-again art space is housed at Jager DiPaola Kemp HQ. They don’t have regular exhibits, but if this über-cool design firm is showcasing something, it’s worth seeing.

Shelburne Art Center

Take a class in stained glass or “fiber and surface design” at this gallery right on Route 7.

Union Station

The coolest thing about this former train station are the winged monkeys on the roof. Yes, winged monkeys. It’s home to the Art’s Alive Gallery, too.

VCAM Studio

They hang all sorts of eclectic art at this public-access cable studio.
