About
This gallery is a hidden gem with the work of 26 artists displayed over several rooms. Spacious viewing rooms allow visitors to take in the broad range of artistic styles and subject matters. From the large paintings to the smaller works (fit well in a suitcase), the gallery has a lot to offer. Browsers welcome! The First Friday of each month features an evening reception with artists present, art demos and fun conversation.

A beautiful gallery run by wonderful people. Dianne and Wendy could not have been more welcoming or informative. Their gentle, warm approach was so inviting. We loved the collection of art from different artists and the stories that came with many of the items exhibited. Affordable, varied artwork and a wonderful team. Thank you.

This is a much larger gallery than it looks from the outside. A representation of local art. Many pictures are available in card form if you cannot afford the original or have no wall space! Lovely gentlemen at the desk.

I absolutely love going to the Okanagan Art Gallery. Every time we come up to Osoyoos I always stop in and view all the amazing artwork they have to offer, and admit, usually walk out with one or two new pieces each time. There are multiple artists in the gallery, all with different yet beautiful aspects in painting. Our favorite artist is Claudia Punter, we own several of her wildlife pieces. If you are into art no matter the style, definitely check out the Okanagan Art Gallery filled with amazing local artists!

Tiny, cramped with little on display. We were disappointed. It seemed more like a meeting place for locals to have coffee.

I think you may have had us confused with another gallery. Our gallery is large with 5 rooms of art as well as hallways, skylights offering lots of natural light and space to sit to enjoy the art. I hope you will visit again and revise your review but thanks for taking the time!

I visited this gallery several times in the summer of 2016, and more recently in June 2017. It doesn't get stale! There are always new works and, often, new artists. You will always find an artist on site, who is more than willing to share their expertise. You'll enjoy seeing the self portraits!

My wife, Brenda, and I have attended two of the "First Friday" events here. The first one to check the place out and the second time to support a guest artist friend of ours. The various artistic styles and mediums used are nothing short of amazing. The gallery itself is a number of rooms attached to a long, narrow hallway that you enter from the main street. It's deceiving from the outside but very much worth exploring. If you are a fan of any type of artwork, you must check this gallery out. It features pieces you would expect to see in much larger galleries in bigger cities, so this is truly a gem. We'll travel from Princeton again for more 'First Friday' events, and even invited friends of ours from Princeton who joined us at the March event. Don't walk by this location the next time it is open! Thanks.

Amazing artists featured in wonderful venue, with one of the artists on site at any given time. The displays are always changing, so we visit every time we're in Osoyoos.

This galley on Main Street Osoyoos is tucked away but well worth the search . It is owed and operated by local South Okanagan artists with a wide variety of paintings and related art works spread out over several rooms which adds to the display and ambiance.
