I love this little gallery. I normally would be intimidated by the title of gallery, but this place…read moreis very friendly and has a lot of different price points, including small, unique gifts. The first time I came, it was on a holiday walk and I was surprised it was so relatable. I ended up buying a piece of art and loving it! This year, I bought another piece from the same artist for my house, as her work speaks to me. I also bought some gifts from there. I love this little addition to Webster Groves!

This is not your CWE or Washington Ave gallery that worries about what will sell kind of show,…read morethis is your basic storefront gallery in a hipster part of Maplewood. You never know what you'll see here, graduate student work from WU, off the wall installations, but it's always interesting and often shows the kind of cutting edge art no one else in town will take a chance on.

The May Gallery is a wonderful gallery that features photography, mostly student work. It is…read morelocated at Webster University on the second floor of the Sverdrup building in the west wing. Shows last varying lengths, often a month or more. Typically each show features the work of a group of photographers, which makes it very interesting as each photographer can only choose a few images to show. The choices they make and the groupings that are formed always intrigue me. Sometimes the photographers clearly choose their best work, while other times a series is shown rather than individual shots. Visitors are able to peruse the gallery at their own pace, and there is no charge for visiting. A sign up sheet is always available at a podium, enabling visitors who so desire to be kept up to date on the goings on of the gallery.

As a Webster student, I so wanted to be proud of fellow classmates work. But I just don't think…read morethe May Gallery does it justice. My rating is not saying that the work shown in the gallery isn't good, in fact, in most cases it is spellbinding. But unfortunately, most people don't get to see it. In reality, the May Gallery is just a hallway on the 2nd floor of an academic building. It doesn't feel like a place where people can come, stroll through, look at the artwork, and then sit down at a cafe with a cup of coffee. Even if it were moved to the lower level, it might be more inviting than the end of a hallway next to some classrooms and offices. I know that colleges are limited and are trying their best to showcase student work, but surely, with the quality I've seen here, they deserve a better gallery space.

The art can be a mixture of paintings, to blown glass and to pottery. The owner, Charlie Houska, is friendly and very helpful. Stop by and I guarantee that you will find something to smile about, or something to make you think. You might even walk away with a treasure.

Inside, the collection is genuinely impressive. There's a huge range from ancient artifacts to modern and contemporary art so it never feels repetitive. You can go from Egyptian pieces to seeing European pieces from Monet and Picasso in the same visit. One of the best parts is that general admission is free which makes it super accessible and easy to spend as much (or as little) time as you want without feeling pressured. The layout is spacious and easy to explore, although some sections feel stronger than others depending on your taste. It's also the kind of place where you can wander and really take your time. Great for both a quick visit or a longer afternoon. It's one of the best attractions in St Louis with a surprisingly deep collection. Definitely worth visiting especially if you're already in Forest Park.
