About the Garage Gallery & Studio in the artists/owners' own words... Don Simasko , Barbara Simasko , and Susan Rommel have created a wonderfully warm space where you can view a wide array of fine art in a casual, comfortable environment that nurtures both artist and collector. The former automotive garage has been lovingly restored to showcase the artists’ ever-evolving work, as well as to house a colorfully chaotic working studio where you’re sure to find one or more of them happily ensconced behind a partially painted canvas. Walking into The Garage is like being welcomed into a friend’s home. You’re invited to look around, ask questions and chat with the artists in the studio as they paint. And you’ll find that while the caliber of the art is definitely collectible, it’s also surprisingly accessible."  Where: 5784 South Rapp Street, Littleton Colorado 80120 When: Wed – Fri 11am – 5pm or by chance or appointment Questions? 303.703.4080 or  garageartgallery@comcast....
