The Swedish Bohemian's Funk House Art Garden

The Funk House Art Garden is a Bohemian social club that I founded three years ago while living in Middlebury, Vermont at the address formerly known as 190 South Pleasant Street. My former residence, the Joshua Henshaw House, was built in the early 1800's.
Mr. Henshaw was a director of the Vermont State Bank in 1814 when the bank was robbed of some $28,000 in what was determined to be an inside job. The next morning, Henshaw left town for Canada and never returned. A duplicated key to the bank was found concealed in the attic of the house. Later in the century, the house became a Congregational parsonage, and in 2009, the first Funk House Art Garden seeds were planted.

I lived in two different apartments in this building, and with the exception of a few rowdy neighbors from time to time, genuinely enjoyed creating art and a garden here:

The Funk House Art Garden (a,k,a.Funk Haus Art Garten in Germany and the country formerly known as Bohemia)  is currently growing in Sacramento County, California and at the moment, thriving:

Membership to the Art Garden's Social Club is by invitation only, but kind-hearted guests with good intentions are always welcome to visit.
