Gallery 113 is amazing! I think it's awesome that they have many local artists. We have also…read morechecked out art galleries in Denver, but we truly loved the pieces we saw in Gallery 113. I ended up buying two wonderful pieces of artwork at the end of my Colorado trip. I was ecstatic that they were still there from the first time I went. We bought a lovely painting of Pikes Peak. It's hanging up in my kitchen in Madison right now. The other one we bought was of the Kissing Camels and the artist used materials that she found at Kissing Camels as part of the art. It's a really nice space and I hope to come back the next time I'm in Colorado.

From local art galleries, to indigo dye classes, to a cafe...this space has it al! One thing I was particularly interested in was their membership model. Local artists can pay for a monthly membership and have access to all sorts of tools needed for creation. Additionally they have multiple spaces open to community use! This would be a great space to check out if you're looking for meeting space. This space is really interesting and a great addition to Manitou Springs!

Browsing the vast collection of turquoise and other stones and pieces of jewelry we asked about White Buffalo. Michael showed us a raw mined chuck of White Buffalo of which he explained how he could craft into a pendant to fit on my wife's Navajo necklace. Velez Galleries went above and beyond to create a truly special pendant. Michael's exceptional service and professionalism made the entire experience unforgettable, entertaining and educational. We were particularly impressed with how Michael took the time to explain where White Buffalo was mined and how he could transform a raw stone into a beautifully crafted pendant. This one-of-a-kind piece is something my wife will treasure forever. Needless to say, Christmas shopping was extended for one more day and we walked out of Velez Galleries with a new pendant and earrings. Give them a call or stop by, not only do they create the most amazing jewelry on site but they do repair work as well as buy selected items from the public.
