Some items were quite pricey but that's to be expected. You could find a number of interesting things that were on the lower end of the price range. What I appreciated was the staff left us be to browse and take our time. It was a very relaxed environment to take in the displays.

This is my first time in Vermont. I walked by this shop after seeing many creative displays…read moreoutside. This shop does not only have highly innovative galleries but also sells these artworks. The owner told me that their galleries featured 16 local artists and 200 artists from all around the world (amazing!!!). I would never expect to randomly walk in a store to experience THIS MUCH arts!!! From recycle materials to metal works, they have it all! Of course, love this place so much I had to walk out with a purchase! Gallery in the Woods appeared to be one of my most favorite places in Vermont. I would highly recommend art appreciators, non-locals and locals to stop by for a visit. I guarantee that it will worth your time!

Sawmill is a truly magical place. Located in Montague, Sawmill is located in the mill area that…read morecontains The Alvah Stone. It's a small but mighty and lovely shop that houses products from 15+ local member artists and 20+ local consignors. The artists take turns running the shop and are very proud of their co-op. If you're even so much as nearby Montague, you simply must stop here. It's really hard to describe such a place. Its jam-packed full of expertly curated paintings, photos, jewelry, scarves, knick-knacks, sculptures, cards and more. No two artists are the same. You can get lost for a very, very long time browsing the selections and getting to know the works of each artist. I mean, just look at my photos below. It is too much fun to turn the corner in the gallery and stumble across something new and colorful. I'm really regretting not purchasing a few wearable art pieces and a pen-and-ink art print of an owl. If you need a gift for someone (or you're like me, and every day is Treat Yo' Self day), Sawmill is a no-brainer of a stop. Not only are you getting an exceptional, handmade gift, but you're supporting local artists and keeping this interesting collaboration thriving. The prices range significantly, but everything here is affordable, and more importantly, uniquely interesting. Love, love, love!

For anyone who is passing through the area and needs to find that special gift or addition to their home, this is the place to find it. The only disappointment we found with this gallery was that we didn't have the space to buy everything in the showroom. We loved this gallery and hope to return soon so that we can stock up on wonderful gifts for the holidays.

When I walked in, one of the staff members greeted me and gave me a short tour, then let me carry on through the gallery without making me feel pressured, which I really appreciated. There's so much to look at. I was drawn to the surrealists, but there's really something for everyone. It was also cool that they had a temporary exhibit in partnership with a local high school, where students got to display and present their work. So not only is this gallery an artistic gem, but it's also community-oriented. Super awesome find right by the Lincoln commuter rail. If you're in the area, I'd definitely recommend checking it out. I also met the owner, who was really knowledgeable and nice, and I have to acknowledge his awesome personal style.

Gary Shepard artist and owner of the gallery is a rare self taught talent that captures more than…read morean image or a peaceful scenic wonder, he taps into the creative eternal and transcendent. If indeed a painting can evince soul, it is because Gary deftly manages to creatively capture it, surround it, paint it and elevate it for public display. Not many people can traffic between the worldly and transcendent, Gary manages to do so effortlessly. He is grounded, rooted and nurtured in the land and the New England life style he paints. His brush strokes and color choices give voice to each rock, bolder, blade of grass, leaf and tree until you find yourself in a surround sound of nature's symphony. If you wonder what Robert Frost would have been like as a painter rather than a poet, search no further Gary Shepard is the embodiment of that self same spirit.

From the owner: Gary Shepard began his professional art career it the early 70's as a watercolorist. After much…read moresuccess, he expanded his talents , to venture into oil painting as a new way to express himself. He has become one of New England's most collected artists. His style has become more impressionistic and abstract over the years but still maintains a realistic look. He approaches his painting with the same vigor as his watercolors, the mood of his watercolors and oils are equally dramatic.

Everything was great until a staff member chose to talk down to both my friends. Her manner and tone indicated annoyance for no apparent reason. She actually addressed the youngest adult in our group as if she was a child! This is unacceptable!

I do like Art on the Rocks and will certainly go back but I expect a more appropriate customer/staff interaction in future.
