Our Mission
Savage Art Studios was founded in 2006 by a group of seven visual artists (from the former Minnesota River School of Fine Art) and with grant from the City of Savage. The City provided incentive for the artists to settle in the Hamilton Building in Old Downtown Savage as part of the City's long-term redevelopment program for the are. Mary Aries & Jo Storey assumed ownership in 2007, so that the rest of the group could get back to their painting. Then in 2009 the business was purchased by Jo Storey and the name was changed to Savage Art Studios & Gallery. Four of the original 3 still call SASG home and are Our Signature Members: Patricia Kness, is a long time resident of our Southern Metro community, having been raised here and lived most of her life in Minnesota. Classically trained at the Minneapolis College of Art & Design and the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. She has also benefited from workshops held by national and Internationally recognized artists.

She also studied at Minneapolis College of Art and Design, followed by a workshop at Atelier Lack.

A wife and the mother of two teenagers, she became a full-time student at Atelier LeSueur and Minnesota River School of Fine Art. Mary is a Signature Member of SASG. Mary and Jo purchased the primary shares of the studios in 2007. Mary continues as a studio artist and retired from management of the gallery in 2009.
