    The City of Roanoke is rich in the Arts. Today I decided to go visit this very unique Art Gallery…read morein that it's a Coop Gallery. The members get to exhibit their artwork there, and when it's sold, get to keep higher percentage of the sale than if they sold it through a regular Gallery. If you're an Art buyer or collector, you also win because you don't have to deal with a middleman and so the prices of the artworks are more reasonable. This Gallery is located on Campbell Ave, in front of the Center in the Square, in one of the most desired storefront areas in the heart of Downtown Roanoke. It has a reasonable size long space where different Art medium are exhibited such as paintings, photographs, sculptures, and some creative mediums, just to name a few. I had an opportunity to meet with some of the artists who are members and have their work exhibited there and they were so friendly and welcoming, talking to me about the Gallery and answering all my questions. I love art. Took several electives in Art History while in College. My most prestigious painting that I have ever had was an oil painting by Mary K. Trotter, an American artist who studied in Philadelphia at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts before moving to Paris. I bought it at an Art Gallery in Beacon Hill, Boston, and even had to put it in lay away to be able to afford it. This Gallery is the perfect place for those who love art to purchase their first artwork to exhibit in the living room of their home, or maybe even to begin their own Art collection. If you're an artist, either full time, or part-time, you can consider joining this Coop Gallery and selling some of your art. Whatever you do, I would highly recommend that you visit this Gallery and view the wonderful artworks exhibited there.

    Absolutely love this gallery. Such a variety of art and artists. must go and visit !!read more

They represent more than 260 artists from all over the Alleghany Highlands area (Southwest Virginia and parts of West Virginia). The friendly, volunteer staff were helpful and excited to share information about the handmade treasures found here. I was surprised by the variety of artwork and I want to highlight a few types that I loved: painting (realism, abstract, impressionistic, expressionistic, etc.) wood working (turned wood, live edge, sculpture, table ware, and decorative), jewelry making (custom designs in both traditional and modern versions), crafting (quilts, basket weaving, sewing, etc.), and photography (black and white, artistic, realistic styles and subjects such as nature, landscapes and local sites such as the Washington and Lee campus). Also, for the first time, I saw fly fishing lures displayed along with other crafts. Perfect, and well-deserved! I found this store after glimpsing the main sign on route 64. After you get off the exit (24 I believe), just follow signs into old town (historic) Clifton Forge and continue to Ridgeway Street. Note: this non-profit center appears to be located in a former retail space, so it is not a stand alone building, it is located in a row of shops (near Cafe Museo). Look for the Cafe Museo sign which is easy to spot. There is plenty of street parking. This place is a real treat and I wish I had more time to take one of their classes, add the walking tour of old town, and stop at one of the lunch spots nearby. I visited after a morning hike at Douthat State Park, but this shop is also easily accessible to visitors from the George Washington and Jefferson National Forest, Goshen, Warm Springs, Lexington, Covington, or anyone passing through to Beckley or the the New River Gorge National Park or Gauley River National Recreation Area. Before the next holiday or family celebration, consider a thoughtful, handmade gift from this unique shop and support local artists in the area.

It is a fine arts gallery and boutique that always is on the lookout for the finest quality and selection of original paintings, sculptures, art glass, jewelry, and specialty gifts by local and regional artists. Since I moved to Roanoke, I have always been very impressed by the quality of works they carry. The gallery has two large well lit display windows up front and is located in a prime location downtown. People going to or coming from restaurants in the area or other places like the Mill Mountain Theatre oftentimes pass by it on the way to their destination and are amazed by the artworks they see in the windows, just like I am. When I went to visit the gallery this Wednesday afternoon, a very friendly and knowledgeable lady greeted and welcomed me and explained to me the story of how they were able to get this key location to move their gallery to. I told her how important art has always been in my life and in the lives of many in our community. This is an ideal place for local and regional artists to introduce their artwork. They can do so by making an appointment to introduce themselves to the Art Gallery Manager and showing their portfolio and some of their artworks. It is also a wonderful place for members of our community and visitors passing y to acquire beautiful artworks to decorate their homes or to expand their art collection. I remember the joy it gave me when, while living in Boston, I visited an Art Gallery and acquired my most valuable painting by the American Artist who also lived in Paris, Mary K. Trotter. I highly recommend this Gallery to all living in or visiting Roanoke. Stop by and view the artwork they have at the moment. Enjoy doing so and who knows, you might find that special piece of art that you can take home with you and that will bring you joy throughout the years as well as all those who visit and admire it.

    "The true work of art is but a shadow of the divine perfection." Michelangelo…read more I've always appreciated art and the importance that it plays in people's lives. The Sidewalk Art Show takes place annually on the streets surrounding the Taubman Museum of Art in the heart of downtown Roanoke, Virginia. It is hosted by the Taubman museum itself, whose mission is to bring people and art together for discovery, learning, and enjoyment. The Sidewalk Art Show is one of Virginia's most oldest and anticipated outdoor art shows. It is held annually usually on a Saturday and Sunday around the end of the month of May. This year 2025 was the 67th year it takes place. It was held on Saturday and Sunday, May 31st and June 1st from 10am - 5pm. The exhibition from mostly regional artists included original paintings, prints, jewelry, watercolors, etchings, mixed media, fine art photographs, fine crafts, and sculpture. It is always free and open to the public, and a premier destination for art aficionados and ideal for fine art shopping. Over a period of two days it is estimated that the show will have 10,000 attendees. It is also an annual fundraiser to help raise funds for the Taubman Museum of Art programing to the community. The Roanoke Sidewalk Art Show also offers a variety of awards to participating artists, including cash prizes and merit awards, to recognize the best artwork. The show also features awards specifically recognizing the achievements of artists in particular media and through memorial awards. The most coveted award being The Best in Show Award with a cash prize of $1,200 plus the use of the image for the following year. After some years now of living in Roanoke, Virginia and being fascinated by driving by the art show, and seeing all the white tents lined up along Salem Ave, and crowds of people walking by, enthusiastically viewing and enjoying, and some evening purchasing some of their most valued, precious artworks from the show, I finally decided to schedule some time out of my busy schedule to attend the show and experience for myself one of the Star City's most prestigious and beloved yearly events. Being my first time attending this event, I would describe it in one sentence as: The experience of a lifetime! I invite the readers of this review to view my photographs and video clip from the event and see for yourselves first-hand what's it all about. Oftentimes when we visit art galleries or museums we get to see beautiful original artworks by famous and up-and-coming artists, but rarely do we get to meet the artists themselves and interact with them, asking them questions about their early beginnings, their creative process, the figment of their imagination. Here I was able to do so and discover very interesting personalities behind the artworks themselves. And I was fascinated with what I found. Very loving individuals who bring out their souls through the expression in their artworks. Creativity gives all a meaning in life. And for many artists the process of creativity is the process of living, of discovering themselves and the best that they can create and thus be. I highly recommend all those reading this review to attend one of the future Sidewalk Art Shows in Roanoke, Virginia, and to visit the Taubman Museum of Art while you're here. I can assure you you'll have the experience of a lifetime.

Many of the items are "primitive", but there are also limited modern and contemporary themed pieces. Prices are moderate to high, what you would expect at a gallery. Location is convenient with plenty of parking. The artisan working was friendly and helpful. Note: if you have young children, space is limited inside which may prevent stroller access and there are many breakable items within reach of little hands. This is a great quick stop when going through the area, or a good option for purchasing a meaningful gift.

    There are few places to experience Appalachian lore than in the Green Bank Cooperative Arts Center…read more This new gallery is the result of dedicated artisans who have pooled their resources and opened up a gallery and shop literally in the shadows of the Green Bank National Radio Astronomy Observatory. Entering the place is a wonderful step back in time to an era where time was not of the essence. From amazing hand-made quilts, to handcrafted furniture, to candles, hand made tools and so many other things, this place is amazing. Green Bank is located a scant 15 miles from the sprawling Snowshoe Mountain Resort, the largest ski area in the Mid Atlantic. The Arts Center is at approximately 3,000 feet altitude, and as a result, the wonderful weather makes possible some of the nicest blooming foliage in the Eastern US. Which the artisans have taken full advantage of, and there are many flower-related items on display. In addition, the large building also contains a workshop and several other classroom areas for the dissemination of Appalachian arts. Also amazing is the fact that it is impossible to check in on Yelp from here, given that the entire area is part of a 10,000 square-mile, federally imposed radio magnetic silence area on account of NRAO and other national security-related federal installations nearby and as a result, cell phones, WiFi, WANs, and even walkie-talkies are banned by law.
