Contemporary Art Studio Castle Gallery Is Opening in Middleburg

Castle Gallery, a new contemporary and local art space, will open this weekend in Middleburg, Virginia, timed with the town's Christmas parade. Founded by art advisor Catherine Dolaher, the gallery is her first permanent location after a successful Georgetown pop-up. The opening features works by local artists Caroline Jean Gray, Lydia Marie Elizabeth, Megan Elizabeth, and Tara Andris, with prices ranging from under $200 to $10,000. Dolaher, who previously worked at the Hirshhorn Museum and other institutions, aims to blend contemporary art with a welcoming, home-like atmosphere, partnering with The Paradise Antiques for furnishings.
