Town Hall Arts/Galerie Copper

Susie seized the opportunity to take up art after retiring from teaching sixth grade several years ago. She started in watercolor, but has branched into work in most all media. She and her husband, Larry, created the art center Town Hall Arts in Copperopolis where she has enjoyed classes by many foothill artists over the last decade. From pastels to oils, she is always eager to learn something new. She also teaches beginning art in all media and is the featured artist at Galerie Copper in Town Hall Arts at Copper Valley Square.

Taking great pleasure in painting with others, Susie fills the calendar at Town Hall Arts with a variety of classes and activities. Artists regularly come from distant towns to paint with friends in Copper, which has become a hub for artists both in the hills and the valley. Town Hall Arts, which includes Larry’s frame shop and Susie’s gallery, is located on the south side of the square, with classes nearby at Atelier Copper. Susie has also organized painting trips from Copperopolis to art workshops in France, Ireland, Croatia, and Maine.
