While I personally didn't find anything that I needed to have in there, it's a very nice little shop with lots of powerful air conditioning, and a nice lady who was happy to let us stroll through, checking out all their wares. They have a large selection of local artists, doing cool and innovative things! They have a variety of media- jewelry, accessories, stuff for the kitchen, closet, and paintings. The shop was clean, and parking is easy! The prices were quite reasonable, and all the stuff was quite interesting. This shop is of many cool little art galleries along the main drag in Rockport. It's a fun way to get some culture in while you're at the beach!

TLDR: Awesome art shop with a variety of unique pieces from Texas artists plus delicious cookies…read more Perfect if you want a Rockport souvenir that doesn't scream "Rockport." Not accessible via wheelchair or stroller, unfortunately. I adore little art shops like this one! So glad I popped inside on a whim. They've got a variety of art from local artists, working in diverse styles. Saw a few interesting pieces and took home a lovely wooden wall hanging from an Austin artist. Don't miss the cookies at the check-out counter (vegan and gluten-free and delicious). The London Fog was yummy (I'm a fan of the drink but it's a cookie flavor I've never encountered). Owner (Danya) was so sweet and welcoming. She gave my daughter a sticker (they're not free) so I really appreciated that. Now, I do need to mention that you've got to climb some stairs to enter. So unfortunately it's not accessible to folks in wheelchairs or anyone looking to bring their baby stroller. I believe owners are trying to rectify this -- it's quite an endeavor so don't hold it against them. If you have a stroller, I recommend leaving it outside and just carrying your kid (don't let them run free if they're handsy -- lots of fragile and breakable stuff in here). You can also carry the stroller up the stairs (the owner even offered to help us do this but it was easier to just leave it). We left our wagon stroller outside and watched my 3.5-year-old closely while I carried my 22-month-old. Worked out just fine.

Home of the famous whooping crane photos! Salt Flats is a…read morefun art gallery in the Rockport Cultural Arts District! They focus on wildlife photography of animals around the Texas Coastal Bend. They do a really cool technique where they print the photos on metal, so it has a timeless, permanent look to it, with a metallic sheen to it that makes the colors on the birds and other wildlife just pop! They have a whole gallery here in the Arts District of Rockport. They show off a bunch of other cool, local crafts and stuff for your home. Keep an eye out for all the wind spinners out in front of the place. They'll get your home transformed into a Texas beach house in no time! The gallery staff is quite friendly, and the prices are quite reasonable, considering the time and effort that goes into each of these photos, and the process of printing them on metal. When asked how the photographer gets some of these incredible shots, she always responds, "Patience, luck and a little magic is the key to my success." Parking is usually pretty easy at this gallery, and they have park benches out in the shade, where you can watch the traffic go by, and adjust to beach time. It's a wonderful place where there's plenty of shade out front, with a good breeze that powers all of the wind spinners out front. I suggest you check it out!

This is a large gallery space that showcases a variety of local artists. The upstairs area was dedicated to a specific artist while the downstairs was a mix. All the art was for sale. There was also a small gift shop (saw a few cute items). Finally, a small but lovely sculpture garden outside. As usual, the art is hit or miss (subjective, obviously) but as an artist myself, I always appreciate the promotion of local artists. It really feels like the focus here is to promote artists and encourage artistic community. Love that there is no entrance fee especially since I have two small children so you never know how quickly they'll get bored or cranky. We sometimes have to leave abruptly or move quickly. No fee helps a lot. Staff was very friendly.

This coastal-themed gallery is in a nice little retail space, right across from the Winery on the Bay in the Rockport Arts District. They keep regular hours, but they also have a monthly Arts Walk that the Arts Council coordinates, and they stay open late, serve up some wine, beer and cheese, and show off their greatest works! I really enjoyed the nautical themed paintings, as well as the ones of the local Aransas County wildlife. They also do frames, which look really neat! The owner, Mike was super friendly, let the dog come on in too! The shop was super clean, well lit and fun to visit! Rockport has a reputation for being a funky arts town, and this gallery does a great job of representing!

Yatahey! This authentic Native American jewelry store is a…read moregem of a shop! They specialize in Southwest Native American jewelry- all authentic wares with real turquoise and other gems and stones. This shop only sells the real deal merchandise, and they can prove it! They've got certificates of authenticity, and disclose who the artist is. There's apparently a big trade elsewhere in fake Native American art, coming in from the Far East and the Middle East. The proprietors of this store are on top of things, and personally warrant that their stuff is real, authentic and legitimate. Other vendors in NM sell their stones that are really t glass, plastic or rosin. Apparently, even seasoned buyers can get fooled. Don't worry about that here at the Turquoise Eagle! The store is run by father and son, and you can tell jewelry goes back a long way in their family. They obviously know what they're talking about, and come from the reservations or pueblos of New Mexico. I grew up going to a lot of these pueblos, and I can personally attest that they've got some magnificent examples of the artwork from the different tribes. They also sell Native American goods, like items for ceremonies, dream catchers, CDs of chanting and singing. It's such a cool store with some beautiful jewelry.
