The Wells Barn Legacy

GO ART! is thrilled to announce plans for GO BARN!, a new cultural community hub located at the Orleans County Fairgrounds on Route 31, midway between Medina and Albion. 
 
GO BARN! is envisioned as a vibrant center for arts, agricultural education, and entrepreneurship, offering a diverse range of workshops in fine arts, literary arts, horticultural arts, folk arts, design arts, tech arts, media arts, culinary arts, and performing arts. With dedicated spaces for performances, hands-on workshops, community gardens, and event areas, GO BARN! will create new opportunities for local artists, artisans, and small business owners. 
 
We’ve identified major funding sources for the project’s construction, but these funders require strong community backing. To move forward with design and programming development, we urgently need to raise $150,000. This funding is crucial to laying the foundation for grant applications and significant funding commitments. 
 
Every donation, no matter the size, will be deeply appreciated and will show our collective commitment to making this transformative vision for Orleans County a reality.
