The Current

Located in Stowe, The Current was established in 1981, growing out of a community project to save a historic building and use it for the benefit of the community. Their mission is to enhance the human experience through the visual arts. They provide year-round visual art exhibitions in galleries and an annual outdoor sculpture show, Exposed, throughout the town; public programs such as lectures, panels, and film screenings primarily linked to our exhibitions; and progressive and innovative arts education programs for all ages. In recent years, they evolved the arts education initiatives through an Interpretive Learning Program and expanded studios that create hands-on learning experiences.

The Current truly makes a difference in the lives of our children and in the lives of artists. It makes a difference to art lovers, and those who are experiencing art for the first time. Art is change. Art is hope. And Art is a core value of this community.
