Desdemona’s Makes a Splash in MarbleheadBy Jessica DentonPortClintonNewsHerald.com

Marblehead, OH – A local gallery has made a big move in the last few months and has finally settled into a new location in downtown Marblehead, a short drive from the shores and views that inspire many of its 30 local artists.

Desdemona’s Art Gallery moved from its retail spot in a plaza on Ohio 163 near Ferguson’s Gallery, to 806 W. Main Street in Marblehead in June and has become a staple within the quiet, artistic community.

This is the third location for Desdemona’s, originally founded by local artist Laura A. Brown and a friend, when it was more of a general gift shop. Brown’s daughter, Bailey VanKirk, attended Danbury schools and graduated with a bachelor of fine arts from Kent State University in 2008.
