As she wrapped up my purchase, she took the time to write down a description of all gemstones and elements in the jewelry so I'd have it for my records. The jewelry and artwork was reasonably priced, especially when I remembered to tell them I live in Oregon, so no sales tax was collected. It is great to be an Oregonian, even in Washington.

With the typical weather patterns in the Northwest, indoors is good. Art is so personal, I am always conflicted about assigning stars. One person's masterpiece is another person's candidate for the junk pile. So don't read too much into this rating. Of the seven galleries/studios we visited, nothing here 'spoke to me.' I ended up making purchases at two other galleries on the tour. It was the largest gallery of those we visited and the artists were welcoming and had snacks for visitors. My rating is based purely on my personal impression of the collection. Again, the largest, but nothing that knocked my socks off. However, collections change, so I would give it another try the next time I'm in town.

Barlow Gallery is a a wonderful new fine art gallery in downtown Tacoma that features a diverse…read morecollection of original works of art from over 20 artists - locally and from around the world. Most of the art are paintings, but there are also sculptures, photography, jewelry, and even some furniture. I am one of the local artists, and I have been so impressed by how well they have treated me and all the other artists I've met. Their customer service is beyond anything I've encountered before! They work closely with both artists and customers to create a customized experience, unique to each person's needs. It's definitely well worth your time to check them out!! The artwork is frequently rotated, but you can see their full collection by clicking on each artist on their website. Anything you would like to see in person, they'd easily arrange. They also host a solo artist exhibition each month with lovely complimentary food and beverages. It makes for a great date night!!! You can find the dates for each month's exhibition on their home page. Barlow is honestly a wonderful place to visit - there's nothing else quite like it in Tacoma!!!

I read about the Art Walk in a Tacoma paper and so we decided to cross the Tacoma Narrows Bridge for a little outing, not really expecting much. I thought it might be held outdoors along the waterfront, similar to a Farmer's Market. Instead, galleries open their doors, and in some cases offer appetizers and drinks, which is so very smart with our typical NW weather. There is also a scavenger hunt element. Pick up a form at any gallery, collect the stamps at each location and you are entered in the monthly drawing for a gift certificate or prize from one of the galleries. The Art Walk is just an excuse to visit the charming city of Gig Harbor. My husband was ready to strap his kayak to our car and move here. It was that beautiful. When we visited, there were seven businesses participating in the Art Walk and everyone was very welcoming. Most were clustered within easy walking distance of each other in the heart of Gig Harbor, so it was a nice way to see this town. One gallery was located about a mile north, but still an easy drive with a pretty view. Of the seven businesses, we made purchases in two. So great for the businesses and even better for me. Frugal Jen tip for my fellow Oregonians - mention you are an Oregon resident to the gallery owners and you don't need to pay sales tax on your purchases. Just present your OR driver's license and enjoy some tax-free shopping!

It's worth stopping by just to view the exhibitions! If you are looking to add to your collection of quality art work by established local artists this is the place to come. Reasonably priced works are always available by such highly esteemed local artists such as Kari Tirrell, Misty Martin, Michael Ferguson, Richard Heller and more. The gallery also has many works by the late Pulitzer Prize winning artist from Vashon Island, Art Hansen. Prices are very reasonable, most works are available beautifully framed ready to hang on your walls. Speaking of framing, American Art Co. is my go to place to have art work framed. Over the years I have had many works expertly framed here. Good framing is expensive, but framing costs at American Art Co. are competitive. The quality exceeds what you can find elsewhere in the area. The owners, Tammy and Craig, will work with you to create what will work best to display your art!
