AARCH’s gallery has been made possible by the generosity of the Clayton Family and our members. Located on the lower level of the historic Horse Nail Factory office building, the artwork on display is complimented by the gallery’s distinct architecture, space, and natural light.
The Gallery is located at 1745 Main Street in Keeseville.

A Photographic Exhibition by Mark Kurtz

For more than 20 years, Mark Kurtz has been providing Saranac Lake, Lake Placid, and the Adirondack region with outstanding photography. In this exhibition, he shares with us his attraction to the bridge as metaphorical symbol that represents many things in philosophical contemplation. Mark explains, “I’ve always been fascinated by bridges, their structure, their strength, their symbolism, their aesthetics, their history… their purpose. Photographing them allows me to connect with these structures and think about what they represent.”
