How I wish there were more than five stars. In town visiting family from Wisconsin, Julie graciously allowed me to come into their gallery/shop Monday afternoon to look around. I have very rarely had such a good experience. She was insanely knowledgable about every item in the room, made me feel 100% welcomed, and had me not wanting to leave. I cannot wait to visit again. read more

I don't know how I ended up at Webb Gallery during a time when it was actually open. When my wife and I rolled into Waxahachie late one Saturday afternoon and found nearly everything closed, we had no idea that we were walking into Webb Gallery during one of the only times all week when it isn't. The first thing you're likely to notice here is the dog. I hope you like playing with dogs, because the little black Boston terrier in this place is going to bring you toys and expect you to throw them. His little black body is going to blast and shake his way back and forth across the room the entire time you're there. He cares not for art. He cares for play. If you're at all like me, once you managed to lure the hyper little dog close enough to a wall to actually look at the art, you're going to be delighted. I've gone to contemporary art museums, trying to make myself a better person in some way, and spent the whole time trying to understand... anything... really. I read information about the artists and what they're trying to portray, and my brain makes a noise like "buh" and shuts down. Here, though, the art is simply delightful. When we went, there were sideshow posters and paintings like old tattoos. There were small pieces based on elaborate displays of bad puns and large moving displays made of toothpicks. There was cute jewelry like the silver necklace my wife bought with the pendant that just says "blah blah blah." Everything is fun and whimsical and punctuated by the excited grunts of a tiny dog dropping a Gumby toy at your feet. The owners seemed very happy to discuss any of the pieces with us, and knew all about the artists who had created the art. I think they stayed open longer just because we walked in when we did, and at no point did we seem rushed to get out. We felt very welcome and enjoyed every minute of our visit to Webb Gallery. If I ever find myself in the area on a slow weekend afternoon again, I will certainly be stopping in to see what's in their gallery next. read more

What a cool little gallery. It's too bad that I always go on a day that they aren't open. I never want to call and make an appointment while standing in the window fogging up the glass. You see, without an appointment, they are only open from 1-5pm on Saturdays and Sundays. I just saw on their website that they have items on display at Uncommon Objects in Austin as well as Dolly Python in Dallas. The site also shows a number of their artists with samples of the work. Whenever I have looked in the window, I see an eclectic combination of folk art, big top oddities, Elvis gear, local art and miscellany. On my drive tomorrow, I might call to make an appointment. If not, I will certainly stop by on the way back this Sunday. Expect an udpate shortly... read more

Really enjoyed the collection but truly loved getting a chance to sit down with the owners. They were incredibly friendly and informative and apparently they get new and cool stuff all the time. Next time I'm in Texas, I will definitely be stopping back around again. read more

Way out, one of a kind arts and oddities space. Must see for anyone passing through Waxahache
