Everything they sell is from Brown County artists, I thought this was very cool! In the front they had a selection of jewelry and in the back was more artwork/photography with other items scattered around as well. Prices do vary pretty drastically, definitely some pieces I loved but could not afford! But it is still a lovely gallery just to look at, the staff did not seem to mind window shoppers at all. There was even a women working on some fabric art that was super nice to my niece when she asked a bunch of questions. One of my favorite collections was the metal jewelry, tiny pieces sculpted into amazing necklaces, earrings, etc. but sadly those were currently not in my budget. I did purchase some gorgeous blue earrings and my sister in law purchased a bracelet from the same artist. The guy who rang us up said he has told that artist to charge more...well, I guess, but by not doing so, she also got 2 of her pieces sold that day! So who knows how often prices fluctuate.

The facility has almost completed a major renovation to update and modernize the two floors of galleries. Yesterday during my visit, I was welcomed immediately by staff and told about the exhibits that are currently in the gallery. I saw hand crafted jewelry, pottery and lots of beautiful oil paintings. Prices are commensurate with what I'd expect to pay for an original work of art by a talented artist. I like that they have added a timeline explaining the history of art in Brown County in the entry. There is no parking, but you can find street parking to the west. Staff is helpful and not pushy. This gallery is a must visit if you love original art.

Cariani, Carl Graf and Genevieve Goth Graf. The BC Art Guild also features and sells the artwork of over 50 regional member artists. The Guild also has a Gift Shop of art prints, jewelry and ceramics. Marie Goth was well known for her portrait paintings throughout the 20th Century, especially her paintings of the founders of the art colony. When she died in the late 1970's, she left her estate to the Brown County Art Guild. We we are proud to preserve the legacy and artwork of this amazing woman and her collection of paintings by her peers.

Not only will you enjoy browsing the multiple rooms of original handmade items, but you can also sign up for classes, or even just watch a video and make something on your own! They have the supplies for a lot of art/craft projects and you simply let them know whether you want to try it then or sign up for something. And if you aren't artistic on your own, there is no pressure to sign up...just browse through the wide range of items. There are paintings, photos, soaps, candles, wood items, jewelry, ceramics, glass items, etc. All items were made by artists in the region and seem to be affordably priced (especially compared to many of the galleries I've been to.) What the shop is interested is in giving the customer an experience, not just selling you an item. They can't out "Amazon" Amazon. But they can provide you a creative experience that Amazon can't. If we had more time, I think my wife and I might have taken a shot at making something. If you are interested, you might contact them ahead of time to get an idea of how to dress and get an idea of how long you should plan for making something or when the classes are. I did include a photo of a price list for some of the DIY projects with my review. If you are looking for a unique gift and/or want the option of making something yourself, plan on stopping by this shop. Review #2230

One of the best things about this little Nashville art gallery (other than being surprised to see such beautiful things in it) is that it's free to visit! Yes, you can just walk right in and start exploring. If you wanted to talk to someone, there's a booth with people in it who will, I'm sure, tell you informative things about the gallery. I wouldn't know! I don't like to talk to people at art galleries. I'd rather just experience the art myself, quietly, and form my own opinions. What I do know about this art gallery is that it's almost 100 years old, as of this writing. Nashville, Indiana, is a hub for art, and I would consider the Brown County Art Gallery to be the heart of the area's art scene. You'll find work from local Indiana artists here, as well as artists from around the Midwest and beyond. The art ranges in styles from impressionist to photo-realism and everything in between. You can purchase original artwork, or if you're feeling less spendy, you can purchase more budget-friendly prints or postcards. There's something for every art collector here.

This art gallery, one of my favorites, has expanded and remodeled greatly since my last visit. Now,…read morethe galleries are upscale and the layout is easier to follow. We were immediately welcomed by friendly staff when we arrived and encouraged to visit the juried show. The gallery has been running by the Brown County Art Gallery Artist Association since 1926, making it one of the oldest galleries in the U.S. The gallery has moved around a bit since 1926, with the current location on land donated by noted artist, Adolph Shulz. The art is high quality by well-known and budding Indiana artists. Much of the art is museum quality. This is a place to buy real art for your home. Prices start at a couple hundred dollars and go up into the thousands. There were two galleries featuring art and stories about famous artists with Indiana connections. Currently, artists Nancy Noell and Gustave Baumann are featured. Some of the woodblocks carved by Baumann are on display. There is another large gallery with paintings for sale by local artists and members of the Association. A wonderful classroom/studio has been added to the facility. During the summer, kids can sign up for lessons. (But classes are full for 2024). There is a small gift shop with cards, books about the artist of Brown County and more. Visiting the gallery is free but they do take donations. They have ample parking in their private lot. The building is ADA accessible. I love it and will return.
