It’s been a long winter and we’re excited to see everyone! But, with this new season, comes some significant changes for us, Gail and Sarah. After 16 wonderful, happy and very rewarding years at Art & Soul, we’ve decided to permanently close our doors at the end of 2021.

This decision has not been an easy one… but it’s just time. For Gail, she has a beautiful, little home studio on the farm where she and her husband call home. Ron built the studio for Gail many years ago out of a former calf shed! Gail knew she wanted to work from there full time, someday. It’s a place where she can be creative & paint, do framing….and have fun. And then there’s family… Gail’s grandkids are growing up fast and she doesn’t want to miss a minute of it! And Ron - her husband of nearly 45 years, she wants to enjoy as many “Golden Years” as she can with him. Some of you have heard Gail say, “I still like him!” They’ve been blessed to have a lifetime filled with lots of love!

Sarah’s life changed dramatically, when in 2012, she pursued a Master’s degree in Marriage & Family Therapy at Fuller Theological Seminary in Pasadena, California. Though her background was originally in graphic design, Sarah has always had a heart for helping and serving others. For those of you who know her or have been on the other end of her listening ear, you realize what a blessing that decision was for her clients today. So now, with a new home and a new career… life is changing.

So, as sad as we are to say that we’re closing our doors, there’s also great excitement for 2022 and new beginnings! Thank you ALL for your support over these past 16 years. It’s because of you, your kindness and your support, that have allowed us to achieve a dream come true!
