I didn't get the name of the artist who helped us, but he was just a sweetheart. He was an elderly gentleman who had a peaceful, laid-back vibe. I purchased a greeting card and a small ceramic bird on a metal stick. I'm very happy with my purchases. Prices ran the gamut, there was something there for almost every budget. We weren't in there for a very long time, but I'm happy we visited and felt that it was well worth the stop.

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!
