A New Gallery in St. Peters
Pepperell Place Inn has a new art gallery on the premises! Located in the village of Saint Peters, Cindy Walker, inn owner since 2021, says, “I just wanted to bring life back to this house — to bring it back to its glory.” And The Gallery at Pepperell Place is part of her plan to do just that, to make the community shine. “Well, they do the shining. I just do the display,” she adds.
After moving her chocolate shop that used to occupy the space to the restaurant, Cindy had a new vision for the large, bright room. She believed visitors want to buy something from the area and The Gallery would help fill that need
“From the get-go, I wanted all kinds of things for people to choose from.” She set her sights on attracting local artists who produced original, high quality work. “I needed to see that there was talent behind it. I didn’t want anything that was mass-produced,” she emphasized. There is a variety of reasonably priced art now on display.
Also, the space is for rent for meetings, private dinners and any other reason for a small gathering.
