2000 square feet filled with large paintings, abstract art, illustration, collage and mesh & wire "industrial quilts".

We have fine art for sale, working artists' studios, ....plus rotating art exhibits.

Our light-filled front gallery is the perfect spot to be inspired...or to sit and have a cup of tea while viewing art.

Conveniently located on Front Street in West Exeter near the railroad tracks.

Street-level with free parking ....we love being in this walkable end of town!

120 Front Street Exeter NH 03833

Art Up Front Street is Exeter's first collective of working artists' studios.

We are painters, designers, assemblage artists, digital artists, and creatives.

A brief history:

Rose Bryant & Mal Argondizza purchased the building in September 2016.

After months of clean-out and studio walls construction, the first artists moved into studios during January 2017.

Many thanks to all of the contractors, neighbors, artists, and friend/volunteers who helped get us going. We will always be so grateful.
