Home of the famous whooping crane photos! Salt Flats is a…read morefun art gallery in the Rockport Cultural Arts District! They focus on wildlife photography of animals around the Texas Coastal Bend. They do a really cool technique where they print the photos on metal, so it has a timeless, permanent look to it, with a metallic sheen to it that makes the colors on the birds and other wildlife just pop! They have a whole gallery here in the Arts District of Rockport. They show off a bunch of other cool, local crafts and stuff for your home. Keep an eye out for all the wind spinners out in front of the place. They'll get your home transformed into a Texas beach house in no time! The gallery staff is quite friendly, and the prices are quite reasonable, considering the time and effort that goes into each of these photos, and the process of printing them on metal. When asked how the photographer gets some of these incredible shots, she always responds, "Patience, luck and a little magic is the key to my success." Parking is usually pretty easy at this gallery, and they have park benches out in the shade, where you can watch the traffic go by, and adjust to beach time. It's a wonderful place where there's plenty of shade out front, with a good breeze that powers all of the wind spinners out front. I suggest you check it out!

While I personally didn't find anything that I needed to have in there, it's a very nice little shop with lots of powerful air conditioning, and a nice lady who was happy to let us stroll through, checking out all their wares. They have a large selection of local artists, doing cool and innovative things! They have a variety of media- jewelry, accessories, stuff for the kitchen, closet, and paintings. The shop was clean, and parking is easy! The prices were quite reasonable, and all the stuff was quite interesting. This shop is of many cool little art galleries along the main drag in Rockport. It's a fun way to get some culture in while you're at the beach!

When I looked inside, it sounded like someone was back there, but they didn't answer to my knocking :( Number One Rule of being a gallery owner - follow your posted hours!! When you are closed during business hours, you aren't just hurting yourself, but EVERY SINGLE artist you represent.

This is a large gallery space that showcases a variety of local artists. The upstairs area was dedicated to a specific artist while the downstairs was a mix. All the art was for sale. There was also a small gift shop (saw a few cute items). Finally, a small but lovely sculpture garden outside. As usual, the art is hit or miss (subjective, obviously) but as an artist myself, I always appreciate the promotion of local artists. It really feels like the focus here is to promote artists and encourage artistic community. Love that there is no entrance fee especially since I have two small children so you never know how quickly they'll get bored or cranky. We sometimes have to leave abruptly or move quickly. No fee helps a lot. Staff was very friendly.

This coastal-themed gallery is in a nice little retail space, right across from the Winery on the Bay in the Rockport Arts District. They keep regular hours, but they also have a monthly Arts Walk that the Arts Council coordinates, and they stay open late, serve up some wine, beer and cheese, and show off their greatest works! I really enjoyed the nautical themed paintings, as well as the ones of the local Aransas County wildlife. They also do frames, which look really neat! The owner, Mike was super friendly, let the dog come on in too! The shop was super clean, well lit and fun to visit!
