Welcome to the Montpelier Center

As you travel along scenic Route 33, you’ll pass a nearly 100-year-old school building, lovingly restored by dedicated community members and local businesses.

Today, this historic space is home to The Montpelier Center, where you'll find a vibrant art gallery, enriching classes, and community events that often spill out onto the beautiful Village Green.

One of our most cherished features is the LOVE artwork sign, crafted from tools and materials donated by local residents. This one-of-a-kind piece reflects the spirit, values, and rural charm of our community.

We invite you to stop in—explore the current gallery exhibit, sign up for a class, become a patron member, or join us for one of our many programs and events.

The Montpelier Center is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) charitable organization, proudly independent and not affiliated with any government entity.
