About

The Center for Visual and Performing Arts (CVPA) has been the home of South Shore Arts since its opening in 1989. As a primary tenant in this multi-use facility, space for South Shore Arts includes the 5,000 square foot William J. Bachman Gallery, the South Shore Arts Gift Shop, studios and general offices. Our main gallery is named after William J. Bachman, the architect of the CVPA and a founding member of South Shore Arts.

The South Shore Arts classrooms on the lower level of the CVPA include the Oesterle and Dietrich Studios, the Bodie Photography Studio, a pre-school art room and a ceramics studio.

South Shore Arts welcomes all visitors and affirms our commitment to making our programs and services accessible to everyone.

Fitzpatrick has authored or illustrated eight books of art and poetry, and, for the last two years has written a column for the Newcity. Fitzpatrick's art appears in the Museum of Modern Art in New York City, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago, and the National Museum of American Art in Washington, DC.
