I was drawn to all of the glass blown art and found the most adorable ring holder designed and made by a local artist. If you're looking for a unique gift for someone or yourself, this is the place.

I have never been at their store nor seen their gallery in person. However, George Charriez,…read moreLauren Charriez and Christie have done me a tremendous service and made a wonderful frame. My son was delivering a paint to a show in Blue Ridge, GA. When he dropped it off, the show would not allow it because I used the wrong frame (my fault completely). There was a very narrow window (2 hours) to change the frame or lose the opportunity to be in the Georgia Watercolor Society National show for 2023. 4elementsart came to the rescue and reframed the piece in less than 1 hour. The team saved the day and did it with great humor and skill. I want to thank them all.

Beautifully curated space with several amazing collections from local artists!…read more Doreen's Art House sits alongside several other local retailers and eateries along Main Street in downtown Blue Ridge. As we wondered from shop to shop, the open doors and cute pup on the porch invited us in to a beautiful space filled with art of all styles. While the walls and tables were lined with completed pieces, the artist staffed for the day was in the middle of completing a beautiful animal print. Overall, Doreen's Art House is a great addition to the downtown Blue Ridge scene and is certainly a spot I will frequent when visiting the area!

Great staff! We traveled here to see the Youth Arts Month exhibit. Loved seeing all the other art…read more Friendly staff!

We checked this place out after returning from the scenic railroad excursion around 2 p.m. It is…read morelocated facing the railroad tracks about 2 blocks south of the train depot. It is beyond the new county courthouse building it what appears to be the prior courthouse. Admission is free, though donations are encouraged. Given that Blue Ridge is a fairly small town, the scope of their arts building was quite impressive. When we visited, they had a gallery exhibit that took up the entrance hallways plus what was the main courtroom. Many of the paintings were very good. My impression was that they host rotating exhibits like this periodically. There are certainly towns much larger than Blue Ridge that have nothing like this facility for their arts communities. In addition to this main exhibit, they also had an arts supply store in the building, as well as a kiln in the basement for pottery (including classes). They also offered classes in upstairs rooms, on various arts-related topics. I believe the town also hosts arts events a few times a year (like plein air sessions and festivals). If we make it back to Blue Ridge in the future, we'll likely return here to see what new exhibits are on display. I'm giving it a 5-rating due to it exceeding expectations by a wide margin.

THE ONE! If you…read morecould enter only one gallery during your visit to Blue Ridge, it should be this store. The women in this store aren't hear to just ring up your purchase, they actually do a wonderful job of presenting the artist and discussing their work. That's how you sell art and it is definitely a feature that sets them apart from the other stores. My husband and I were interested in this huge handcrafted piece and the sales person provided great information about the artist's, (now deceased), history and work. The gallery is beautiful and showcases various art objects from local artists. They had sculpted items, pottery, jewelry, paintings and more. You are asked not to take photos due to copyright concerns and this is quite understandable. When in town, don't forget to stop by the Turning Leaf!

Really great local artist fare. Also HUGE selection of Avindy jewelry.read more

Maybe you would sell more rocks if you were nice to people. Went in to ask a simple question and…read morewas met with rude attitude. When someone says can I ask a question...the appropriate response isn't "maybe" followed by more rude attitude. How about greet a customer with kindness? Sitting there on your phone not paying attention and seeming annoyed by a customer is not a way to sell products. As a rock collector I was excited to add to my collection especially since I drove two hours to visit this particular store and am extremely let down by the experience I just had. You never know what someone is going through or how they might have just been looking forward to visiting your shop then to be treated so poorly just really messes up the whole day. I hope you find some kindness in your heart and the happiness that is clearly missing.
