They have solo shows in their gallery section and do group shows as well ---- keep an eye of for open receptions. Good art isn't cheap, so don't expect to find flea market/amazon prices here. The prints (I like) start at $150. The paintings (I like) start at $1000. I met the owner Marc and he was really helpful. This gallery has been around around for 13(+) years and is an absolute must-visit. If you don't live in the Arlington area, there are restaurants and a theater nearby, so make a day out of it. Overall - this gallery is a gem.

The class focused on a number of different areas and aligned with the STEAM curriculum.

We are definitely going to look into more classes and workshops for our kids at Maud Morgan Arts Center.

I bought my best friend's wedding gift here, and it couldn't have been a better choice. Best of all, this place is completely artist owned and operated, so the staff are helpful and so interesting to talk to and learn about. Come check it out and show the artist community some love!

I am going to age myself a little bit here. Around 15 years ago, a friend and I visited the MFA. I…read morevividly remember these creative chairs with placards stating "please be seated." We'd look at each other, laughing, saying "I am sitting on art!" Though a newly minted teenager, I had the wherewithal to know not to touch anything (unless expressly permitted). This is one of the things about the Pucker Gallery that I wish were more clear. Some of the art pieces were designed to be interacted with, like a unique working elevator-type piece. Paintings? haha yes - I know to keep a respectful distance here. Some other pieces, while I cannot remember the specifics, felt they could have been either. Further, on the same note, there were a couple sliding walls with art slightly tucked away; are we welcome to pull these out, or a no-touching zone? Despite the two paragraphs I just spent exposing my past and putting the gallery on blast, I thought this Gallery was awesome! For what seems like a smaller gallery, they had more works seemingly than several contemporary art museums I'd been to. There were a handful of exhibitions and numerous works within each one. The best part: entrance to the gallery is free! Especially where tickets to the, [in my opinion small and underwhelming] ICA and Mass MoCA are $20 and $25, respectively, this is beyond amazing! Thus, Pucker Gallery is in a league of its own. It is like a free mini-museum that I would happily visit again, either alone, with a friend, family, or even a date!

When you enter the building, you'll have to take the elevator upstairs to reach the actual gallery. I was impressed by the size of the place, especially given it's on Newbury Street. I'm honestly not a huge art person, but I really enjoyed walking around the gallery. There was a wide variety of art, so there's something for everyone. I especially appreciated how there was a lot of signage with information on the art, as well as some tv screens with educational videos. I'm not sure if this is the type of place you can often rent out for events, but if so, it's really a cool spot for that purpose. I hope to come back and visit Pucker Gallery again!
