Where Art Comes Alive: Front Street Celebrates 60 Years of Creativity
Front Street, Dayton’s largest collective of artists, artisans, and entrepreneurs, is celebrating sixty years as Dayton’s hub for art and culture. Fueling innovation and creativity since 1965, Front Street has been home to generations of aspiring artists and entrepreneurs.
Originally an envelope factory, Front Street was re-purposed as an incubator for innovation, evolving into a vibrant tapestry of artistic expression. Today, visitors can explore a diverse range of artistic endeavors, from the delicate strokes of painting to the fiery passion of glassblowing.
But Front Street has evolved to be more than just an art gallery. This eclectic campus offers a unique blend of creativity and convenience, featuring everything from a state-of-the-art gym and luxurious spa to custom jewelry and furniture, stylish salons and more. It's a destination for the active Daytonian seeking both artistic inspiration and everyday essentials.
“Front Street has a rich history in Dayton’s vibrant arts community. I’m humbled to be the steward of such a storied property, and proud to be able to provide a home for artists and entrepreneurs to thrive and flourish right here in Dayton,” said owner Richard Lundin.
Under Lundin's guidance, Front Street is experiencing a renaissance, brimming with artistic energy and a vibrant community. With over 150 unique shops, boutiques, and artist studios spread across three historic buildings, there's always something new to discover. To learn more about Front Street, visit the link below.
