We popped in on Saturday, and we thoroughly enjoyed visiting with Sheri as we browsed her beautiful creations! We ended up purchasing several unique pendants as meaningful souvenirs from this resilient and talented artist who shared her moving, personal story of survival in the wake of Hurricane Harvey. We love visiting Port A, and the surrounding coast. The beaches are both fun and relaxing, and you have the opportunity to meet inspirational natives like Sheri:)

When I looked inside, it sounded like someone was back there, but they didn't answer to my knocking :( Number One Rule of being a gallery owner - follow your posted hours!! When you are closed during business hours, you aren't just hurting yourself, but EVERY SINGLE artist you represent.

As an artist owned and operated gallery, you can't ask for better atmosphere, service, products, and an amazing overall experience. Make sure and go to the back where Made by the C's sells delicious desserts, sandwiches, and more. Be sure to stop in when you are in town and you won't forget it.

Coast is G.O.A.T.! (Greatest of all time) This is a great…read morelittle gallery! 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!

Highly recommend using his services or even just stopping in to see what a few local artists are offering to capture the essence of the third coast.

The art is really nice! I was actually pleasantly surprised. I had such a good time taking a look…read moreat all the wonderful pieces especially Dorothy Hood. The only thing that bothered me was the etiquette of some of the other attendees. Some of them were really loud and commenting loudly on each piece which kind of took away from my experience. They also happened to have a dance performance from the Texas AMA inside which is cool, power to all arts including dance but it was distracting and smack dab in the middle of some interesting pieces I would've liked more time with before my flight. Elizabeth's was a cool restaurant. The blood orange ahi tuna was really delicious like spot on. My martini was okay. They didn't have olives and I've had better being from vegas. Prices are fair though and the staff is decently nice. Lots of crying babies in there when I went though which kind of killed the artsy vibe I was hoping for but I guess that happens in a touristy part of town in Texas. Overall it was nice I'm just a sensitive person and enjoy quiet to ponder art and eat my meal so consider that if you're traveling solo and are similar I suppose. Gift shop was cool and I had a nice chat with the lovely lady in there. And the security guard was cool, he let me store my luggage with him. It's a quick walk over from the convention center so if you want a little art time and a quick drink and meal that's super convenient, it's kind of a no brainer.

Brand spanking new,it replaces the small original arts center in the marina, destroyed by Hurricane Harvey. This is an impressive structure for a small town. Built to withstand hurricane conditions,the cement and steel piers go down 60 feet to hit bed rock. The two story modern structure is archetectally appealing,roomy, comfortable and operated by a caring staff. 3 large galleries with one dedicated to local artist . Don't miss this treasure if you're in Rockport. Go!

Where do I begin to tell you about the Rockport Center for the Arts?…read more I completely fell in love with the Sarah Hull Collection. Ryoichi Suzuki's sculptures were such a wonderful surprise, and I'm so excited that Susie Black will be the featured artist at the festival in July! I'm so thrilled to now own this sunglass case. It's too beautiful to use! The student art display was another highlight--there was a piece on cats and another on dogs, and I adored both. The detail in each work was amazing. These young artists are incredibly talented. I can't wait to go back. I'm also including a video of the area and some of the beautiful murals that surround the art center, so you can see the whole area and get the whole experience. What a wonderful place to visit! Thank you so much!

At this event, they had tables set up in the gardens, around the gazebo in the center. We got to take in the wonderfully catered brunch, while checking out all the hummingbirds, and the flowers they have growing! The gardeners have thoughtfully identified each type of plant growing in the garden, so you can look up more info on them later! Smart! They have statues and birdfeeders, and the gardens are official Monarch butterfly way points and stopping grounds. Inside the museum, you'll find a bunch of information on Connie Hagar, who set up the first Rockport nature preserve, and a bit on the history of the Key Alegro development. It shows a bunch of historical artifacts, and some stuff on the wildlife of the area. Interesting! The Aransas County area has long been a destination for nature lovers, and this area expresses the local love for the natural aspects of this coastal county. The museum is ADA accessible, and has ample air conditioning and clean restrooms. When I went, it was free admission to the museum, because we were there for an event. Not sure if it's free or open every day... I'm glad I came in! I certainly learned more about the development and history behind the area! Thanks to the History Center for making us feel welcome and providing such great grub! Yum!
