Art Galleries in Georgia: Main Street Gallery | Brown's Guide to Georgia

Art Galleries in Georgia: Main Street Gallery | Brown's Guide to Georgia
In 1985, Jeanne Kronsnoble and an artist friend opened a studio in Clayton, Georgia, where they could create and display their own artwork. Before long, Jeanne’s interest in the local folk art became a passion and she began traveling the back roads throughout the Southeast to meet artists, hear their stories, and collect their work. In 1996, the gallery moved into a larger historic storefront space to showcase the work of these self-taught artists. Main Street Gallery has evolved over the years into one of the premier folk art galleries in the United States and has been featured in such publications as Southern Living, Better Homes and Gardens, and The New York Times.
