Gallery Owner- Michelle Post
Michelle Post opened her gallery on the second floor in her building that also serves as a studio, shop, living quarters, and a (soon to be installed) museum for her late husband’s sculptures in the rural countryside south of Jacksonville, VT. The 1910 Building was originally built in the mid-70s for the Coombs’ maple syrup and candy enterprise located on Maple Hill Ln.
Originally from New Jersey, Post will be calling Jacksonville her home in the summer of 2025. Post has shown her styrofoam and fiberglass sculptures at NBOSS (North Bennington Outdoor Sculpture Show) consistently since 2017 and these works can now be seen on the grounds of The 1910 Building. Her 10 piece, aluminum cast work, The Oligarchs, are permanently installed at The Grounds For Sculpture in Hamilton, NJ.
She had a long career working for the late Seward Johnson, Jr. in the creation of his sculptures and then the Director of Museum Displays and Installations that built and installed Johnson’s traveling show Beyond The Frame, debuting at the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, DC in 2003. She worked previously at the Johnson Atelier Technical Institute of Sculpture in Hamilton, NJ, a sculpture production facility that drew countless number of artists to learn, work, party, have nervous breakdowns; all with the common bond of making art. The JA closed it doors in 2005 and left a void in the production of sculpture in New Jersey.
During her time at the Johnson Atelier, she established relationships with many of the artists who were creating their sculptures at the foundry. This association led to the creation of the Highwater Sculpture Invitational (2006/2010) whose aim was to expose new artists and their work to new audiences, thus fostering a positive experience for all.
It is with this background Post has embarked on a permanent gallery that will continue to showcase artists who produce mature, seasoned, and engaging pieces that form a resonant ensemble with the goal of encouraging cultural interaction.
She enjoys making sculpture, crochet, printmaking, painting, and taking long Harley rides in the Vermont countryside.
