Fallsview Arts Opens Doors with Grand Exhibition and Ribbon Cutting

BREWSTER, N.Y., Nov. 3, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Fallsview Arts, a fine art teaching studio in the historic Juengst factory complex near Croton Falls, celebrated its grand opening on Saturday, Nov. 21, marking the first year of its operation. The studio, founded by Sarah Miller Totten, an artist and educator with over 15 years of experience teaching in Westchester and Putnam counties, welcomed the community with a public open house and exhibition.

The event featured new works by Totten, the studio's teaching artists, and local painters and sculptors. Attendees enjoyed a day filled with art, music, and community engagement, with food, a photo booth, and an opportunity for guests to contribute their own creations. The ribbon-cutting ceremony took place at 2 p.m., signifying the official opening of the studio.

Totten, who opened Fallsview Arts in November 2025, expressed gratitude for the support she has received over the years.

The studio occupies restored space in a former mill building, offering original architectural details that serve as a setting for classes, exhibitions, and gatherings.
