The Southern Vermont Arts Center is a beautiful, small museum surrounded by fields with a variety of sculptures. It features interesting arts and exhibitions, with easy-to-read signage providing wealth of information. The outdoor sculpture garden is a highlight, and the on-site cafe, Curate, offers farm-to-table dining, though at a higher price point.
A really nice art center with contemporary displays. You can also walk the area and see large sculptures displayed in various areas. The art center provides a place for professional artist to display their works of art. In addition visit their restaurant, they have a really good brunch menu.
This is a review of the restaurant only. After grandparents day at the Long Trail School I took my grandson to the Curate Cafe at SVAC for lunch as a treat. We both enjoyed our meals. The food Is pricey but it’s for a good cause. It was an overcast rainy day and, unfortunately, the mood seemed to affect the mood of the cafe staff. If you go on a sunny day maybe you’ll get some smiles. We didn’t get any.
We were a group of six and we had a wonderful dinner. I won't go into too much detail, but suffice to say, the ambiance and food was worth the trip. Plus, our waitress was a veteran and did a nice job. Get there a little early to view the gallery and art work.
Enjoy.
