Just one hour from Bloomington, Indiana and approximately one hour from Louisville, Kentucky, is the beautiful town of French Lick, Indiana. Historically known for their mineral springs, luxurious hotels and spas, the town is currently home to a budding artist's community.

Touching Ground Gallery, located at 469 South Maple Street is a newly renovated space in the formally- known, historic, Five and Dime Store, in the heart of downtown French Lick. The new art gallery features the art of Chicago artists, Cyd Smillie, Susan Barton, and Nella Spencer, along with featured guest artist's from Europe and Indiana. Opening in mid-June, 2010, the gallery will sell a wide range of original, contemporary oil paintings, watercolors, ceramics and first edition art books.
