Shiny, Sparkly New Opportunities

Valley Art Gallery is my destination when I need a special gift for someone and I don't have a lot of money to spend but I want to get something wonderful. Northwest artists offer many choices in our nonprofit, all volunteer-run art gallery. For instance: Many pieces of jewelry add up to a perfect Valentine's Day gift for your sweetheart. xxooxx

Valley Art is Alive and Well!!

December brings the holiday season - full-blown - into the smallish town of Forest Grove, and Valley Art Gallery is the place to do your locally "grown," locally manufactured (handmade) goods. Whether you want to get a family friend a special wind chime made from branches and tinkling pieces of obsidian, or a bracelet or necklace for your sweetheart with semi-precious stones, or a watercolor or oil painting as a gift for the whole family, this is the place to look.

Fran Richards catches individuals during reflective moments and idyllic scenes of Oregon's landscape and many European locations' busiest, most scenic spots.
Everyone will find something in this show that appeals to them. If not, then just take a look through the rest of our beautiful gallery.
There is something of every media to choose from.
