There's also a courtyard in the center with benches, flowers and songbirds, all of which make for a relaxing spot to sit for a few minutes. It's not a big museum, but the exhibits are top notch. Plus, in a region with a skyrocketing cost of living, it's nice that the museum is free.

I first came across this gallery while attending a wedding at ERIA, where they had partnered with a…read morelocal artist to showcase some of their work. The paintings were absolutely stunning and immediately caught our attention. We ended up getting in touch with the artist and purchasing one for our own home. I also wanted to leave a review because I know the artwork was curated through this gallery, and Nikita and the ERIA team had nothing but wonderful things to say about how great they were to work with. I always love supporting local businesses, especially when they're collaborating with other local businesses in the community. After picking up our piece, we spent some time walking through the gallery to see everything else they had on display, and there were so many beautiful pieces. As we continue decorating our new home, we'll definitely be back. If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping in and taking a look. You never know what you might fall in love with.

If you find yourself wandering through West Marin or exploring Point Reyes, do yourself a favor and…read morestop by Tom Biagini's wonderfully unassuming gallery in Inverness--a place where coastal atmosphere, humor, and genuine artistic talent quietly live side by side. Tom's work captures the held breath of a moment--those quiet intervals of emotional intensity that seem to exist just beyond words. His paintings move fluidly between the electric pulse of Los Angeles, where anonymity hums through palm-lined streets and the mirrored sheen of rain-slick pavement, and pastoral landscapes where whispering fog drifts down rolling hills toward the Pacific. At the same time, Tom's playful imagination surfaces in his precocious pandas and his martini-drinking, cigar-smoking sumo surfers--works that reveal a welcome irreverence and humor. Yet it is Tom's Faces that I find most captivating--lush, seductive portraits that feel almost tactile... dare I say, juicy. Among the pieces I've acquired are two that I return to often: Ethereal, from his Strong Women series, where a luminous figure seems to materialize from swirling color and atmosphere, and Last Glimpse Before It's Gone, a serene horizon capturing the sun's final breath before night quietly takes the tide. They are paintings I find myself returning to again and again. Works that reveal something new each time--not through explanation, but through feeling.

I bought a work from him several years ago and get many comments on it from those who see it.

We decided to check this place out on a Saturday afternoon, not sure what to expect. Parking was…read moreeasy for a quick stop, as it's at a dead end street. We were tricked numerous times thinking there was someone on site, but nope just random mannequins posing among the decor, as well as at least two tin man characters, and a couple different slides (one of them cut off halfway in the air). There was lots to explore and no one stopping us from going deeper into the property, where you'll find a cute little footbridge and pond, along with plants, animal sculptures, and more artwork made of "junk". It doesn't really look like it's maintained (as of May 2024) but the junkyard look actually gives it some character, and it has a sort of messy organization to it. And of course the oversized picnic table off toward the side near the highway can pique the curiosity of those driving by. I liked it... nothing too impressive, but still a unique exhibition of quirky art, which is something I enjoy especially when it's free.

The exhibit we saw was modern Native American artists and the pieces were all really beautiful. Mostly paintings some poetry and written word, a few textiles, baskets and other three-dimensional pieces. Many of the pieces were also for sale. I loved the art and also reading some about the artists too. Free admission, parking is super easy if there isn't some other event going on. We stopped in on a hazy weekday afternoon.

Small place and the two owners are happy to welcome visitors in a very chill environment.

We had the…read moreopportunity of meeting and listening bits of construction and history for Mr. Phil Cossou, one of Tiburon's first railway police officers and lead builder of the enormous model display you will see upon walking in which took over a decade to build. Mr. Cossou was kind enough to share his memories, the construction of the model, walk through and share all the well preserved artifacts - one of the original maps, plans obtained directly from the Smithsonian. The upstairs once housed the chief operator and his family - all recreated with original pieces of furniture, dish ware, machinery, kitchen appliances. The view from each window was spectacular. We were told that the location was once very industrial, with trains and ferry's shipping goods to and from Tiburon to San Francisco. The docent and Mr. Cossou were wonderful and informative.
