    I though the entrance to the gallery was very welcoming. It had a good amount of natural light and…read morethe it was kind of working the whole modern warehouse look - which has its appeal. I found The Prairiebrooke to be well designed to house art in its open, airy natural setting with an interesting metallic-y silver and bronze floor and recessed lighting. I think the venue actually made some of the art look more appealing to me. The guy working the room asked me if I needed anything, which I did not. I told him I was just in there to look. He told me to grab some complimentary cookies before heading back to work on framing. PG not only sells the work of artists, but they also specialize in custom framing and design display. I peaked into their workshop where they do the framing and it's more like a garage. They do some serious work back there; I think I even saw a flicker from a blowtorch. My thinking is, if a gallery spends that much of its space working to make your purchased painting framed so well, it's a two in one masterpiece. You don't have to buy a painting at location A and then drag it to location B for framing - it's just handy. I'm not sure about the presentation of the art in the back. I found a really cool Picasso-like painting shabbily hung in the coffee break room next to the fridge - huh? It was strange. Why did they need six offices anyways - it just took away the space needed in the main gallery room so that they were forced to hang paintings in poor places - like the break room where few customers wander anyways. If I were the artist, that would be unacceptable marketing on their part - I mean honestly, who would do that? I liked the main gallery though. The brick walls were fitting to the scheme of the design and the leather seating area was a nice touch. I really like how the guy trusted me enough to be alone in his space. Keep in mind, I had spent the last two hours being followed around by skeptical older women who thought I was trying to steal - so it was a relief to be able to relax in here without feeling like someone was breathing down your neck. And it was with the freedom that I broke the cardinal rule of gallery attendance: I took photos - gasp!

    Contemporary Art in middle of suburbia Kansas. Hey, it works! In all seriousness, PB Galleries is…read morean alright spot to see some great pieces by national artists. Now here's where it gets dicey. I'm at odds about the feelings I got from the place though. Pretty awkward and certainly had a tinge of "frame shop" as another reviewer so cleverly pointed out. I never felt I was in a gallery really. It was more like a place that housed art for framing. Here I was getting a "sales pitch" on the place having great, national artists without ever talking about any of the artists or maybe even the work itself. The owner of the gallery came over and we chatted. The "forced and faked" convo ensued and I was left with the heebie-jeebies. I enjoyed some of the art in the shop, just not the shop. What to do? Why look those artists up online perhaps for a purchase, of course. God Bless cyberspace, ebay, and the "shopping cart" checkout system.

    As far as small art galleries/fun stores go, I really enjoy this one. I've been in several times…read moreand the staff has been very friendly and informative each time. They have a nice selection of items and they know the history of each artist that they carry. They seem to always have some textiles, jewelry, purses, artwork and ceramics and I think they have a fair price range for handcrafted items in a high rent district. It's definitely worth checking out!

We were excited to attend the recent open house of the store's five year anniversary. When we arrived, the owner was finishing up with some other guests. Once they left she just went to stand by the register and did not bother to acknowledge us. (It is a very, very small shop, so the choice not to welcome guests is a conscious one.) The other worker stood in the corner watching us like would-be shoplifters. We had never been treated this way on any of our previous visits, and in fact had always enjoyed interacting with the staff. I will not make any presumptions as to why were treated so coldly on the day of the open house. It is unfortunate, because there are several art pieces we have been keeping our eye on with the intention of eventually purchasing. I am not sure we will be eager to return.
