But don't be surprised when you're deeply moved by Akiane's life story and her world-reknowned painting of Jesus. Melani was an incredible tour guide, very knowledgeable and passionate about the gallery and its mission. We took our niece from out of town, along with a couple of friends, and they were all blown away. Just be sure to reserve tickets in advance, and arrive on time, and note their "clear bay" policy. I saw an 1-star review from a family with an autistic child, which breaks my heart. The intention at the gallery is to provide quiet time for viewing and reflection. Anyone with special needs should consider requesting a private tour and they would definitely be accommodated. Great staff at the Beloved Cafe, serving coffees, teas, sandwiches and pastries, too.

Decided to check out the Beloved Gallery in Marble Falls as I read there was a free exhibition of a…read morefamous childhood artist I knew about years ago, Akiane Kramarik. "Akiane: The Early Years" is a collection of original masterpieces painted by Akiane before the age of 16. I was so excited to know it was up here! You have to reserve a time slot online & I did it early this morning. Note that you cannot bring any handbags in the gallery, just clear bags. Also, no photos are allowed. They watch you like a hawk. We checked in the Beloved Cafe where there's a Concierge who can look up your name. The cafe has Beloved T-shirts, tumblers, mugs, trinkets, wallets, keychains & bags. Bathrooms are on the 2nd floor of the office space next door. You can take an elevator or stairs after the check-in clerk unlocks the door. We were led into the gallery by the Concierge where there was a tour guide starting her presentation by a stunning light blue marble wall as a backdrop. There's also a light blue marble waterfall wall below the gallery. The tour guide briefly explained Akiane's life & how she slowly developed her painting & artistic talent, how her parents used to be atheists & agnostic & how her most famous painting, "Prince of Peace" came about. The owners of the gallery met Akiane & her family obtained some of Akiane's works & that the goal is to receive 1 million visitors to the gallery. I believe they've already had 45,000 visitors from all over the world. The gallery has been opened since April 2023. The guide advocated us spreading the word. You're led to a screening room where Akiane speaks about her journey in a short ~17 minute film from 1:17pm-1:34pm. After the film ended, I asked some questions with the gracious tour guide until she told me we had until 1:55pm because the next tour was going to take place. She appreciated my questions but had to cut us off & said we should read Akiane's biography for more detailed info. We literally only had maybe 10 minutes to view all the paintings so it was a bit rushed. I didn't have enough time to read thru & examine the artwork. I thought the film was a bit lengthy & the room was hot. Hopefully the next time we go we can bypass the film. This is a must-see and inspiration. I didn't know it was up here until today when I was looking at the Christmas events at Marble Falls & their 44 Nights of Holiday Cheer.

There are multiple ones scattered on the property and there are some workshops that we were lucky enough to go inside and explore with the artist.

Some of it is for sale but most is for the gallery. I had a fun time and there's lots to take pictures and videos of. Parking is a bit odd. We had to park in the driveway on the side of the road but it's not impossible.

The lady tried to talk us into spending an extra $400 for new glass. When we told her we just wanted the frame repaired she begrudgingly said ok. 3 months later. No call, so we drop in.

I was extremely thorough and clear with A) what I needed framed and B) when I absolutely had to have it done. I even gave them half of the overpriced estimate just to make sure they could order the material needed. A week later Peggy still had not ordered the material. The piece ended up being 3 days late for the date it was explicitly for. On top of that, it was done incorrectly and Peggy promised to fix it . So I gave her 3 WEEKS to order the correct colored and sized metal plate. I dropped in 3 weeks later and she hadn't ordered it. Half a week later I went back and she had ordered the wrong sized plate and still not inserted into the matting like I explicitly and repeatedly had requested. And this was after 3 emails and two trips up north just to clarify exactly what was ordered. It was at this point that I just gave up and took it to another shop where the people didn't lie and cover it up with excuses.

He sarcastically questioned why I would want to matt the prints. I told him they were gifts and he replied "the person will probably just remove the matts, not sure why you want to do this?" This was not in a helpful tone at all. Just rude and snarky. He then advised it would be $150 to matt all three prints, as though that would deter me. He looked at me as though I was stupid, and my 12 year old son even suggested we just take our prints and leave the store. Won't ever be back there again.
