A historic home in Menomonie is now a house of art, thanks to local art enthusiast and commercial neon designer Cheryl Witt. Witt has taken the home on 1232 Douglas St. and opened a gallery where local artists will be shown an at-home appreciation. Scheduled to be open four times a year, the gallery is intended to be a place of gathering and artistic celebration. “Art and community go hand in hand,” Witt said, and with the nucleus of shared talent and creativity in the Chippewa Valley, this proof is evident. The next exhibition is scheduled for August, a duet of indoor and outdoor local art.
