Cafe DSPS-
10 am till noon
1st and 3rd Thursdays at the High Street Gallery.

Is this just an event for people who already know each other? No! We're getting acquainted with new members and non members every other week!
Come chat with other artists about art. You can talk to your friends about your spouse, your car repairs or your co-workers. This is a place where you can share with other artists about your art. Every week. It isn't the same without you!

DSPS 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.
