The woodworking and metal were my favorites, but I also loved the photography, ceramics, watercolors, jewelry, and fiber art. I didn't know you could "paint" with fiber. The artist I met was super-helpful, and the prices were surprisingly low. After shopping, I went down the street for some coffee and a treat. I'm going to bring some friends next time.

They are very unique and reasonably priced in the $25-60 range. Over the years I've bought several pairs and still wear them, still get compliments. In addition to jewelry, there are lots of prints, mostly scenes from Hoood River and the Gorge. Also metal sculptures - lots of fish! Amazed at the varieties. Plus ceramics, pottery, framed pictures, handmade soaps and notecards. Great if you are looking for gifts or something special for yourself. Today I fell in love with ceramic coffee mugs shaped like sunflowers. They were exquisite! But I have so many mugs and use the same one everyday so I did a catch and release. I may have to go back for them!

Many of the pieces reflect the nature and beauty of the Columbia Gorge and Hood River. So much to take in! The shop is also run by artists so they are super knowledgeable and helpful. Enjoyed seeing the cotton tea towels with handmade prints of Hood River flowers, fruit and even beers! Made by Crisp & Tart, I highly recommend these for your own use or for gifts. I have several and I've gifted even more! Recipients are always delighted. Stop in often as the art changes. In the hallway they showcase larger paintings and rotate those artists. Located right on Oak, as the name implies, make it part of your routine! Support local. Support local artisans.

In the back there are dish towels with funny sayings. They also have a wonderful collection of jewelry from local artists and fun, affordable fashion jewelry, too. I don't think I have ever left without a new pair of dangly earrings! The women who work here are friendly and helpful if you need assistance. They also allow you to freely browse without pressure, which I really appreciate. Make sure to make a few laps around the store so you don't miss anything! I go in one direction, then reverse direction the second time; it's amazing how your eyes focus on different items when you approach from a different angle. There are large display cases in the middle filled with jewelry and also on some of the shelves along the perimeter. This is a great shop to visit if you are buying a gift for someone or for yourself! I've been here so many times over the years and have never left empty handed.

They are dedicated dedicated to bringing you visual, performing, and literary art events to the community. The art center features a cool art gallery, a theater, and class room space. I really like community art centers, especially when I have a chance to sample a wide variety of styles that local artists offer. The selection here is interesting, the quality is high, and the prices are very reasonable. I was also lucky to come in during their "seconds" sale and came away with a nicely glazed collection plate. I also enjoyed a nice chat with the friendly folks here, and hope that I will pass this way again.
