About HorseSpirit Arts Gallery
HorseSpirit Arts Gallery represents over 45 local Artists and features many art forms, including paintings, sculptures, photography, glass, mosaics, jewelry, ceramics, woodworking, fiber, and wearable art.
Our Story & Resilience
HorseSpirit Arts Gallery opened as a small, one-room Gallery where Robin Holliday, owner and curator, exhibited her artwork and that of a few other local Artists. In 2015, the Gallery moved to Main Street in Old Ellicott City, MD. On Main Street, the Gallery grew to represent over 40 local Artists. After suffering significant losses in two devastating flash floods in 2016 and 2018, Robin decided to leave Old Ellicott City. In November 2018, Robin reopened the Gallery at Historic Savage Mill in Savage, MD.
