Be it glasswork, textiles, woodwork, jewelry, painting/sketches or other mediums there is something for everyone interested in obtaining locally-made art and craftwork. Personally, I am primarily interested in glasswork and look forward to stopping in again when I'm in the area.

Very impressive curriculum vitaes! Anyway, this place has unique art - whether it is totem poles, jewely, paintings, etc., from local artists. They have workshops for cutomers, i.e., beading, painting, etc. Like I said very unique pieces of art. This is located in beautiful Cross Village, Michigan - if you go through the Tunnel of Trees from Petoskey to Cross Village do try to stop in!

My young adult boys and I had brunch here today $45 per person ($135 +tax) and it was terrible. This was a waste of money. We all left hungry. And the couple items that should have been warm, were cold. The food was not very good and frankly quite bland. Extremely disappointed. Save your money, don't do the brunch... on bright side I love their lavender chapstick.

Cycling Salamander looks like the gallery that would be in a romantic comedy set in Northern…read moreMichigan. Which is to say, it is picture perfect. In addition to the main gallery, the Cycling Salamander consists of a lovely sculpture garden and a special exhibit that is shown in certain rooms of the owner's (picture perfect) house. The art on display consists of two dimensional and tree dimensional art at a variety of price points, from unique pottery and textiles that one could purchase on impulse, to substantial paintings and sculpture from regionally well known artists. I understand that the gallery also hosts musical events and offers classes and workshops. I wish I lived close enough to participate! I am really tempted to give Cycling Salamander five stars, and the only reason I'm not is the plethora of wonderful galleries in the Petoskey area.

The gallery itself has a smart art display on right now (summer 2011) featuring pieces made from found/recycled and/or sustainable materials. There's a people's choice voting too, be sure to do that. There are a few etsy items as well, hats, bracelet cuffs, and skirts. I also saw jewelry and notecards. I may have to return to buy a t-shirt, I really wanted one but the 20$ seemed high. Then again, it's nice to support the local yokels.
