Andrea Smith Gallery Sedona is located in the Tlaquepaque Art and Shopping Village. This gallery has been at this location since we have been visiting Sedona. The store focuses on Buddhas and different deities of Southeast Asia. A nice selection of Buddha, gods and deities. We spend a good amount of time talking with the stwff person working here. She was quite engaging, Parking can be a challenge. I suggest you arrive early if possible to have your choice of parking. read more

Three other friends and Iwandered in to look at what was inside. The man inside started to talk to us. I believe he was Andrea Smith. After a short intro he made a crude joke about Polish women to a person of polish descent in our group. Then he started to talk about how "he could tell all the asian people apart by race" because he has had a few asian customers in his store. He then tried to guess the ethnicity of one of my friends. He said "are you Japanese? No, Vietnamese!" My friend is neither. Finally my friend said he was Filipino and the owner says "Oh, Filipino! Do you like to eat dog? I have some cooking in the back!" Racist owner! Don't shop here. read more

Andrea Smith Gallery Sedona - various horrendously overpriced tchotchkes - Art Galleries Near Me - Sedona, Arizona

AVOID, AVOID, AVOID at all cost! You can find the same pieces on Etsy or other websites for 1/4th or even 1/5th the price this gallery charges. The gallery purchases stuff from India and Thialand for dirt cheap, then, without thoroughly inspecting them for quality issues places them at huge markups. I know this because I am from India and Jaipur city sells the exact same pieces for well under the prices marked at his gallery. On 07/07/24, I bought an expensive Lord Krishna idol made of brass (~3ft tall and 60lbs) from his gallery. Upon purchasing the idol, Gary, the President, started out with excuses like he did not have the wrench to dismantle the idol or the original packaging to provide and that he could not lift the idol himself. So, believing him and respecting his age, I dismantled, lifted and lay the idol carefully in the trunk of my SUV. As we drove off from his gallery later that evening, we heard metal-metal noise coming from the idol. Soon the noise stopped so we stopped to inspect and found a lose piece having broken off within 10 miles from the gallery. Since the gallery was closed for the day, we decided to drive to our home in Phoenix. The next morning, upon sending this picture to Gary with due explanation and asking him to return the defective sculpture, not only did he refuse to take responsibility, instead started blaming my driving saying that the idol must've moved. Well, the idol is heavy (~60lbs), made of solid brass and the piece that broke off was not even load bearing. Plus, we were simply driving on the road that leads one out of Talaque Paque to I-17 all the way to Phoenix. My wife, my son and his friend were all witness to this issue. Folks, do yourself a favor and keep away from this gallery. read more

I recently wandered into this gallery with a group of friends. We were drawn in by the beautiful fine art that was visible from outside. Once inside, we lingered because there were so many beautiful things to look at, from paintings and sculptures, to a large selection of locally crafted jewelry and other gift items. We spoke with Mark who was a soft-spoken, extremely knowledgeable representative of the gallery. He was able to give detailed information on every piece we inquired about, giving interesting history about each piece and the artist. He also followed up with information I requested by email. I enjoyed my visit to this gallery, and my interactions with Mark. I will definitely visit again in the future. read more

Love this gallery!! Beautiful stuff in here and beautiful people. Gary is playful and silly and had our family laughing with his "old school" sense of humor. Andrea's work and the work of the other artists is really incredible and reflects high consciousness. They have some really special pieces that are worth your time! read more

If there were NEGATIVE stars to rate this business I would give it MINUS TEN. Do NOT do business with this gallery. I purchased a ring from this shop and the next day one of the stones fell out. I tried to work with someone who worked at the gallery to have the stone replaced . . . four months of ignored correspondence, I finally got the owner on the phone. YIKES. He was arrogant, condesending, and disrespectful. HE HUNG UP ON ME. One word for this place. Wow. STAY AWAY. read more

Great collection of art and experienced staff to describe the artists and the works. Highly recommend a visit.

I read the reviews about the guy who runs the place. He does kind of exude that "I run an gallery and I'm a smart guy "attitude but he is not as bad as depicted in the reviews, at least in our experience. My wife bought a necklace made by Sandy Clemens, a baseball player's wife. But that is not what made the necklace special, it was simply a nice necklace. There are also some beautiful pieces of art though probably a bit overpriced as appears to be the case for all art in Sedona. I give it four stars because in my book, that means you should check it out when you are in town. read more

Andrea Smith Gallery Sedona - Art Galleries Near Me - Sedona, Arizona

The man who runs this gallery is rude and a liar. I found a necklace that I fell in LOVE with but chose not to buy. I called the week after and asked if he still had it. He said he would look and call me back. He never did. So I called him a week later and asked again and he said yes and would charge me $45 for it. My mom couldn't get it that weekend (as planned) so I came the following week to get it and he told me that the price was now $70. WHAT happened to $45?? Not only was he rude but he lied as well. I will never come here again and I would advise anyone else to avoid this jerks gallery as well. read more

Gary and Andrea are amazing people. Very friendly with a great sense of humor. They made us feel like family. Will have to visit every time I'm in Sedona just to say hi. There's also amazing art in there. Very cool place! read more

Worst service ever. The man was very rude and unprofessional.Went there last weekend with my sister and a few of my friends and the guy his name was Gary smith was very unprofessional and proceeded to talk about me and my friend to my sister that was gonna purchase a ring from him. Which he lost business just saying very inappropriate things about about me to my family. He said some very rude and inappropriate things. He demanded my sister put her credit card down on the table before she even agreed to the purchase. I would not spend my money at this very disturbing evil place. read more

Andrea Smith Gallery Sedona - Art Galleries Near Me - Sedona, Arizona

I did not purchase anything from the gallery, but everything was so beautiful to look at. The woman that was at the store was very kind, and although close to closing time, she was very gracious and helpful. We told her that we had just arrived, and she gave us tips on what to do and see. I though that was very generous of her. Had I been in the market for art, I would have given serious thought to purchasing from her, simply because of her wonderful personality and generous spirit. And although I didn't buy anything, I left with knowledge :) Her items are truly beautiful, and worth the visit! read more

WOW...I was shocked to read all these reviews. All I have to say is the artwork in this gallery is marvelous. Andrea and her son Matthew have created many of the pieces displayed, and they are fabulous artists. I live in Sedona and have visited the gallery many times. The owner mentioned in the other reviews has always been very kind and respectful to me and the guests that I have sent to the gallery. He does have an entertaining, dry sense of humor, but I have never witnessed anything like described in the other reviews. If you are looking for beautiful art, this is an excellent gallery. read more

Beautiful collection of paintings, sculpture and jewelry. I love all the treasurers you find throughout the cozy space. Definitely a unique and worthwhile destination while in Sedona. read more

Lovely paintings and statuary for your sacred space. Chakra necklaces. Course in Miracles coloring books. Not a lot, but choice articles.

I am assuming that I also met the man who the rest are talking about, he seemed to be the only one there. My daughter and I were in the gallery and she was interested in a necklace which was very novel looking and he gave her the background on it, which was interesting. We asked other questions of some of the other displays and got nothing but knowledgeable information. It is a gallery which has a lot of valuable items in it, so I suppose that they could be nervous about the many people who go through it in a day, but we got good service and also purchased the necklace.

Beautiful art, sculpture and jewelry located in one of the most beautiful shopping areas in Sedona, Tlaquepaque (which means the best of everything)--and that's exactly what you will find in this uniquely decorated gallery. read more

The man running the gallery the day we went in in July was rude and obnoxious! I went in with my husband and almost three year old daughter, who happens to be a seasoned art shopper - she knows not to touch without asking, and doesn't stray more than a foot or two from us when we're out. I was holding her and looking at some of the paintings of mermaids and we were talking about what she saw as we walked around and he came up to us and began speaking directly to her. (????) He said, "How old are you?" She told him two, then he said, "How old is mommy (?????) She looked at him funny and I said, "Older than two." Then he said, "You can touch anything you want, little one, as long as mommy and daddy want to pay for it." This is two minutes into the store, as I'm holding her. I immediately told him that his statement was rude and unnecessary and we left. I get that children can be a liability. I do not mind being asked to keep an eye on my child in a polite and professional manner. I also am perfectly willing to pay for anything she damages. I do not appreciate being told in a passive aggressive manner that my child is not welcome. We were in Tlaquepaque looking for art to display in our new home. We obviously did not get any from this gallery and will never. read more
