In the News

Owner Tim Belden was awarded the annual Special Improvement District award for his efforts in revitalizing downtown with the Joseph Saxton Gallery.

Curator Stephen McNulty was featured in About Magazine's November issue. McNulty has spent seven years traveling to and documenting the beauty of some of the world’s most remote biomes. His latest work from New Zealand is featured in the studio gallery.

Acting curator Craig Joseph moves Blind Date, his first Canton exhibition, to the Chicago Arts District on March 12, 2010. His show pairs visual and literary artists, challenging each to create a piece complementing their randomly assigned partner. PDF flyer available here.
