The Churchill School in Baker City, Oregon, has been repurposed into an arts center by local artists, event organizers, and preservationists Brian and Corrine Vegter. The building now houses a sound studio, a working woodshop, metal fabrication studio, gallery space, and multiple artist studio spaces. The school also hosts workshops, classes, and events such as concerts and performances. One recent class was a wood carving class taught by local artist Steve Arment. In addition to learning the basics of wood carving, attendees were able to explore the unique and historic environment of the Churchill School. For more information on upcoming classes and events, visit the Churchill School website, while the Baker County Tourism website provides information on other art classes, events, and festivals in the area.
