The spacious Kavanagh Gallery in the newer, modern building, plays host to a number of exhibits, featuring local, national and international artists, throughout the year. Fine Line opened over 35 years ago as a small gallery on James Street in Geneva. Today it is one of only a few regional art centers in the country where internationally known artists teach a variety of workshops, and over 40 instructors teach over 200 classes to as many as 1,300 students each year."
