He runs the gallery with great skill, bringing in a constant flow of innovative artists. The art in the main gallery here is often the kind of art that wouldn't be appropriate to hang over your fireplace, it's art that makes a statement, and is art for art's sake. Many of the pieces are for sale, some seem to be for display only. There is usually a collection of smaller pieces of art at very reasonable prices, and I'm proud to say that I have a bunch of artistic bumper stickers that I've gotten from Flight! This gallery is the home of the Turn it Off! sticker series. I've always been a huge fan of this gallery's stickers. There's easy parking in Blue Star, and you can chain up your bikes on the patio.

Entrance to the museum was free and although the collection was small, it was colorful, interesting, and full of personality. We browsed the gallery and took pics, note: no flash photography. Directly across the street was the beautiful, well manicured Chris Park. Carefully placed concrete art benches with meaningful engraved messages were scattered throughout the park. There's also a sweet covered picnic area to relax or have a small party. Peaceful and a nice retreat. A small art building resides in the park containing a gallery of a particular artist. We thoroughly enjoyed the colorful exhibit. Forgot to mention there's an outdoor sculpture garden next to Ruby City. Super cool! Must check out. Highly recommend this place for art lovers ! Spent a few hours and had a grand time .

The other reviewers have already spoken to said cause, but you're basically supporting the local church and helping people in need. Nice. Some of it may be "typical" San Antonio touristy stuff, but most of it has the touch and feel of real art created by local artisans. Ceramics, paintings, prints, jewelry, other miscellaneous... You're likely to come across something of interest in this homey little nook of a shop. I really like their variety of pottery and ceramics. Nice stuff. Well made and good selection. See my pics for a few examples. We always stop in here to browse whenever we visit La Villita. Sometimes you find something you can't live without, sometimes you don't. But you always kind of feel compelled to leave with *something* since you know you're funding good works by dropping a few bucks here. No credit or debit cards accepted - heads up. Happy hunting!
