GBHA at The Ramsey School

GBHA at The Ramsey School The Ramsey School is a historic school located in Bluefield West Virginia. Ultimately, the Ramsey will be your one stop arts and entertainment mecca..

Officially closed as a school in the year 2000, the Ramsey sat vacant and neglected for years. Recently it was donated to Gary Bowling's House of Art a 501C3e non-profit organization. Inside the Ramsey's 33,000 square feet of space, we would eventually like to fill with artists studios and other oraganizations with a like-minded goal of promoting the arts in and around the community. The potential

of the building is staggering, and we are well underway to creating a regional arts center. The main gallery area is handicap accessible, with accessible parking nearby. Bluefield, West Virginia - School with Most Multi-Level ground floor Entrances
Ramsey Elementary School has at least one claim to fame. Many years ago it was featured in "Ripley's Believe It or Not" because it has ground floor entrances on seven different levels. The school was built at the corner of two streets, each of which is quite steep. So, the two roads wrap around it in an ever increasing incline.

Good morning, art lovers! I know it’s hot outside, but don’t let that fool you—Halloween is still coming, and we are already getting in gear. 👻
Jasmine Steptoe turned us on to some styrofoam wig heads on Marketplace, and they are currently in process-be sure to see them if you stop by! 🧙‍♀️
And the hallowed Honor Roll, signed by NIGHTSCHOOL Haunt survivors is starting to get its annual re-do, I hate to see it go, it becomes a work of art itself during scary season, but everything changes and evolves, and it’s time. 🎃 NIGHTSCHOOL 2027 is coming. ARE YOU READY?!? 😱💀

Last night’s “Master of None” Exhibit Opening was so much FUN! Got to hang out with some good friends, meet some new friends, and celebrate a birthday! Checking out artwork with the artist available to share her influences and motivation for creating is a great experience for all of us, and allows us to glimpse the shaping and process of creation. Taylor’s exhibit “Master of None” Will be up through July 11, so if you didn’t make it to the Opening, you still have time to take in this show! See you here! ❤️😃
