The Fisk Barn is a historic barn on Gerry Road in Dublin, New Hampshire. The wood frame structure was probably built in the 1790s by Samuel Fisk, who lived nearby and farmed the land. The barn remained in his family's hands until the late 19th century. In 1929 it was converted to an art studio under the guidance of Providence, Rhode Island, architect Albert Harkness. The building is representative of Dublin's early agricultural origins and its later period as an artists' colony.[2]

The barn was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
