is a nonprofit
501(c)(3) organization helping local artists to promote their work
and improve their craft. An historic home in St. Anne's Hill, 48
High Street Gallery serves as both an operating base and a gallery
space for DSPS with free parking across the street in the lot at
the Bomberger Center. Other area art groups and individuals rent
the space for their own shows as well.
Through arrangements DSPS
has made with area galleries, members may display and promote their
work upstairs at Dayton Convention Center and in DSPS' own space
at Cannery Art Design Center (CADC). Additionally, DSPS
presents several shows each year at its St. Anne's Hill location.
The ground floor of 48 High Street Gallery is dedicated art display
space. Upstairs in the atelier, the Dayton Academy of Traditional
Art led by Jerry Edwards offers artist over age 18 daily instruction
and/or shared studio space with shared model fees, M-F 10 am -1
pm. On Friday mornings, Terry Hitt offers weekly 3 hour workshops
for a sliding fee.
