Coming soon: An outdoor courtyard with a blacksmithy and an area for moonlight concerts!! We love this place and hope you will too! Want some more history?? LibertyTown Arts Workshop was founded in 2002 by famed local potter Dan Finnegan, and changed hands in July 2013. The new husband and wife duo of Dolores and Kenneth Lecky are both artists in their own right (a potter and a photographer). They are working hard to add new classes, revamp the courtyard and paint a huge mural on the back of the building! Fun Fact: The building that houses our 40+ artists was once the plumbing annex of the Fredericksburg Hardware store...and we have the kooky floor tiles and wall sconces to prove it! Meet the Business Owner: D.D. and Kenneth!! and Kenneth are the new owners of LibertyTown Arts Workshop. They purchased the business in 2013 and are working hard to build the class schedule, revamp the courtyard and add a huge mural to the backside of the building facing William Street. The two met while attending UVA in 2002 and bonded over their love of art and science...and dogs ( they have three!). is a potter and a commercial property manager who brings business and art together whenever she can. Kenneth is a photographer and software engineer who is using his computer skills to push us into the 21th century!
