The Toy Barn was born in 1985, a few miles outside of Orwigsburg, out of Deborah's desire to give her kids the best toys out there.  Toys that were educational, fun and well made.  In the 12 years since the store closed, the space became a repository of all sorts of interesting but unused antiques.  The Arts Barn was born when she realized that most of her friends were artists, all hard working and very talented, and yet they had no outlet for their work except the occasional art show.  The antiques became the showcases for the art, and the walls that once held shelves of crafts, music, and dolls became the walls that now hold incredible works of arts.
