Nice gallery of fairly unique but expensive art. A bit of a drive from the downtown Chico area but…read morealong beautiful Esplanade. The art gallery is all paintings and prints, mostly from artists outside the Chico area. Beautifully done and displayed very well. Prices are very high (as you'd expect for great art) so they were out of our range but we enjoyed the gallery.

My girls always remember their first class with her where she read them a book called "Ish". It was a special book about how things don't have to look perfect to be perfectly made they just need to look "flower-ish" or "house-ish". It was a great way to allow the children to understand that their art could be uniquely theirs.

If you don't like glass items you will be bored. We were not bored for a second. What we really loved was the man who may be the owner who knows everything about hand blown glass. I love glass vases. They also have glass nick knacks, not for me, but maybe you. Orient & Flume produces fine art glass. All their work is signed. They have iridescent and crystal clear glass. The vases are stunning. Take care of them, they are expensive. Nationally acclaimed for its excellence in design since 1972, they have won some awards and may even be in a gallery or two, I am not sure. I just know that the service was great. I got a wonderful vase and am a happy camper.

Visually, it was lovely to see musicians with cool art in the background, although the art on one of the walls to the left was sort of lame. I did like the goldfish, but next to that were some ho-hum photos that didn't look like they belonged. Drinks. I don't know if this is normal, but it was $3 for a beer/wine. Fine by me! It's not a huge space, but it accommodated 30-50 people quite comfortably. The (1) bathroom was clean, had all supplies necessary, and had a functioning locking door.

The employee that approached that was very friendly. She explained to us about the artist and how he was able to do it. After looking at that artwork, we looked around the store and found some really interesting place. I found this shop more interesting than most museums, to be honest.

I picked up some great photographs by a local artist here over the weekend. The items I selected…read morewere on consignment and were surprisingly inexpensive, though I felt like the prices on the other items in the gallery were marked up a bit high, but that seems to be part of a larger trend evident at galleries all over the place, so I can't really fault them for that. They seemed to have a large selection of work by local artists which I think is fantastic. The glass art that was on display was gorgeous, even if they did have quite a few glass pumpkins mixed in there. I'll be the first to admit, I do not get the whole glass pumpkin thing, they are everywhere! Do that many people really like pumpkins? Or are there just that many women running around with Cinderella complexes? Anyway, they had several (non-squash) pieces that I would've loved to have come home with. Maybe next time. The staff at the gallery was friendly and helpful without being overbearing. I would definitely check them out again.
