OUR STORY
Project Art is an international center for ceramic art located in a renovated 19th-century mill on the Westfield River. Founded in 2006 by artist Sergei Isupov and Leslie Ferrin, director of Ferrin Contemporary, and Kadri Pärnamets joined them in 2008. Together they present ceramic exhibitions and public programs year-round for artists, collectors, scholars, and the local community.
Resident and visiting artists lead classes, workshops, and present exhibitions with work available for purchase in the galleries. Set in the heart of the Cummington Cultural District, the site features Sergei Isupov’s public art and landscaped gardens, welcoming both neighbors and visitors. Programs are supported by the Cummington Cultural District, Hilltown CDC, Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation and the Massachusetts Cultural Council.
Centrally located in the Hilltowns of Western Massachusetts, Project Art is equidistant from Pittsfield and Northampton, midway between the Berkshires and the Pioneer Valley, just 3.5 hours from New York City and 2.5 hours from Boston.
