First I was thrilled, then I was disappointed. I'd visited this gallery for several years as part…read moreof my trips to the the Columbia Gorge and was saddened to see that it closed back in 2011. The thrilled part came in when I was strolling through the Historic Troutdale District and started practically tripping over his life size wildlife statues. But, it wasn't random. Turns out the gallery relocated just a few blocks from the original location, so you can still see his fine work. The disappointment part is that the current gallery space, which the staff calls transitional, just doesn't showcase his grand work to the same degree. The gallery is probably 1/8th of the former size and can't accommodate some of the larger pieces. Half of the space is the artist's studio where he both creates his statues and offers classes to the public. The gallery contains just a small portion of his work and also houses exhibits by other artists in various mediums (sculpture, photography). Caswell's current subject matter, based on a series of special commissions, is also overtly religious. Not everyone's cup of tea or chalise of wine. While I will still visit the gallery when I'm in Troutdale, it won't be as frequent and no longer merits a special trip. The Columbia Gorge itself is the real wow factor.

Great place to taste some wine and check out some amazing art. Everyone is extremely friendly and welcoming. The art ranges from Rip's spectacular bronze sculptures to Ali's beautiful one-of-a-kind jewelry to various photographs, paintings, bells and glasswork. It's all bigger and better than anything I've seen in a long time. I understand this place has a First Friday artwalk, plus other art/wine/food events, so we'll be back here soon for sure.

Located on the Main Street in Troutdale, Also Arts (formerly Infusion Gallery) showcases works from…read morelocal artists. What makes this gallery unique is that they are part of Adult Learning Systems of Oregon (ALSO) program and most of the art they showcase was created by their students. From their website, Also Arts "is a foundation and pillar of ALSO's programs and services committed to the full inclusion of people with developmental and intellectual disabilities. We believe in providing accessible art opportunities, training, expression, and production." Their goal is to provide life skills and opportunities so that all people are fully included and productive, participating members of the community. Independence is key. How can you not love and support that mission! The gallery is spacious with vibrant art of many mediums adorning the walls and tables. The art spans many mediums - water color, acrylic, glass - to name a few. You can purchase originals and they also have prints and greeting cards. Since we all only have so much wall space, I find that buying the greeting cards and framing them allows me to find a spot in my home while supporting the artist. Plus, I use them for birthday, anniversary or any occasion cards and the recipient can then keep and frame them. The artists who are collaborate with Also Arts donate a portion of the sale back to the organization to further support and expand the reach of this foundation and help other artists express themselves. in addition to displaying art, they have a studio in the back where they teach the students. Also Arts participates in the First Friday Art walk, but no need to wait for a Friday to visit. They are open 10-5 Tuesdays-Sunday. Visit them while you are exploring the charming downtown area of Troutdale. Or if you are heading to the Gorge, plan a stop in Troutdale to have lunch and visit the galleries and boutiques along the way

They have really reasonable pricing too, telling me up front that they based their post card prices off of being competitive with Modern Postcard, which is amazing and I have no idea how they can do it but I'll take it. They helped me with a custom designed tri-fold card recently which turned out beautifully and little did I know they were actually going to fold all the cards for me too! They contacted me before printing the cards to let me know that the logo was pixelated so I could fix the issue before the order was complete. The only thing that concerned me was when I asked about sustainable practices they seemed to be less informed than I would have liked. But all in all, I highly recommend supporting this community-minded business.
