About Door #3

These were gallery owner Benzi Henrich’s words when she found the perfect home for her inn and gallery, Door #3, in her hometown of Jamaica, Vermont. After spending much of her adult life in Colorado, it was time to return to the green mountains.

Benzi comes from a family with deep roots in the area and in the arts. Her parents, Emo and Ann Henrich, emigrated from Austria to Jamaica, VT, where they founded the ski school at Stratton Mountain. Coming from a long line of artists and art supporters, they passed their creative spirit on to Benzi. She grew up drawing and painting with her father, whose legacy continues to inspire her work.

Just down the road from where she spent her childhood, Door #3 has given Benzi the opportunity to honor her family’s history and share her dad’s landscape paintings with the world. The gallery blends her own eclectic vision with traditional Austrian influences, creating a warm and welcoming space full of character.

Today, Door #3 is more than a gallery—it’s a studio, a time capsule, and a gathering place. Visitors can browse fine art prints, explore local history, and experience a rotating collection of work that tells a story—from Emo Henrich’s classic landscapes to Benzi’s vibrant pastels inspired by her travels. Always cozy, always evolving, Door #3 is a celebration of community and creativity.
