The venue itself if free to walk in and browse through the paintings, and house a little gift shop and small donations box. Remember that spare change you've got in your back pocket? Toss it in here! High quality paintings and photography. Personally I know absolutely nothing about art appraisal, and prices so I was shocked to see the prices of some paintings. They seemed to range from $1,200 to $16,000!! That's crazy to me! But hey-- someone put time and effort in their work and it is very evident! There's two floors of rooms as well as another building connected by a quaint little garden area. The whole place takes at least 30 minutes to walk around to admire and take in the work, so give yourself some time!

Two major rooms in the gallery, accessible through a secret garden courtyard. Rustic meets modern, hospital sterile with watercolor warmth and illuminated by whimsically strewn twinkle lights. Fantastic in the literal sense. Definitely worth a look-see if you're meandering through downtown Rockport, and a must if entertaining a reception space.

The house is absolutely charming with brightly painted trim and the stairs to the entrance are stenciled with Sigrid Olsen's hand-made designs. The gallery is in Sigrid's actual house, with the living room serving as the show room. Jazzy music just flows from the Bose speakers mounted in the corners, as you are charmed by Sigrid's ceramics, paintings, and notecards. Even my children understood that they were in a special place, and were thrilled to each buy $2 postcards. You can buy a charming card for $2, $4, $5 or $10 for a handpainted card. I've bought two of her handpainted cards, and framed them for art in my bathroom. If you are lucky enough to have the $$$ and room for a painting, they range from $75 and up. Plus, the ceramics are stunning. I met Sigrid personally at the gallery, and she is very nice and down to earth. Check out Sigrid's web site for a closer look. The parking is a bit of a challenge, but if you drive around a bit, you'll probably be able to find a spot (or go on a cloudy or rainy day). Highly recommended.
