Didn't enter as staff weren't masked! Noticed that other reviews also noted this. Shame they have so little regard for their customers!

Owner had his mask off more than on. His wife was just wearing a plastic deflector.
Beautiful store with an interesting selection of artistic items. I will not go back again until the pandemic is over.

It is always a pleasure to visit here. He sources wonderful local art which is very interesting and special. Browsing his store is so much fun. It is also delightful to chat with Jim who is an artist himself so he knows his business very well.
Only issue I have is that I don’t seem to be able to leave the store without making a purchase!!

This well-organized and well-run gallery has tasteful and interesting paintings, prints, pottery and ceramics. All are locally made by talented artists and craftspeople. The prices are not outrageous, and the works are unique and many of them are charming as well. We purchased two items -- a ceramic wall hanging, and a water colour painting.

We were impressed with the exceptionally fine quality of the artwork here. Of note were the wooden sculpture and bowls, fiber art wall pieces and the ceramics, especially the wall pieces. Just an exceptionally beautiful collection of local artists work.

We decided to stop in at this gallery for a look see. We were very surprised at the quality of the work and the unique pieces. The staff are there for your questions but do not shadow you as many employees in a gallery do,
