In 1992, Piermont's first artist-run gallery opened its doors to the public. Twenty-four artists joined forces to create a cooperative gallery dedicated to exhibiting the finest work of artists living and working within the New York tri-state area. Most of the gallery's founding members are still a vital part of the gallery, and other well-known artists have since joined them. Back in 1992 when this dedicated group of artists got together to create an elegant, functional and friendly artist-run space, Jeanne Treat-Tozer, a painter and one of the gallery's founders, explained at the time, "We want people to sense something special when they enter our gallery. We want them to feel comfortable and confident when selecting works." Among the more notable members of the gallery was Alan Gussow, whose untimely death in May of 1997 was a shock to the arts community world-wide.The Flywheel Gallery numbers twenty-two artists who work in a wide range of mediums. Each has earned an enviable reputation in his or her field. They come from Rockland, Westchester, New York City, New Jersey and Connecticut. Their work is varied but they share the common goal of providing the gallery visitor with the best art experience possible.
