Victoria Valentine, her husband and their seven children began the project of restoring the 1890 bank building across from the historic Paris Tabernacle, seventeen years ago.  A few years ago her husband died while watching the July 4th parade at Paris.  Victoria continued on and has created a wonderful sense of place.  The ice cream store and gallery are finished and on the second floor is a living quarter suitable for family reunions  Victoria is fun and full of ideas for art in the Bear Lake Valley.  She is looking for local artists to display at the gallery. 
 
The Hermitage Art Gallery will be open Fridays and Satudays during the winter.  For hours you can call 801 362 9360  or e-mail at valentinehermitage@gmail.com.
