History

Established in 2012.

After working in advertising, illustration and set design, Wendy Neckers opened the Painted Finch Gallery, Inc. in Corry, PA in 2012. Her inspiration came when she met other art professionals, who like herself, had moved to the rural town and had a limited outlet for their creativity. Thus, the idea was born to create a beautiful space that would showcase the local talent and a few professional artists she had met along the way. Originally at 508 E. Columbus Ave., in Corry, the Painted Finch Gallery, Inc. now enjoys a new location in historic downtown Corry, Pa, at 32 North Center Street.
