He greeted us and offered us water as he encouraged us to take our time and explore the other floors with more artwork. What made the experience truly memorable was the owner's genuine passion. When he noticed us admiring a particular piece, he would kindly share information about the artist or the piece itself and you could see the genuine passion he has for all of the artwork and the artists featured in the gallery. His enthusiasm made the visit more special and he is truly the perfect person to run this space. Overall, this gallery is a beautiful place to visit and view the artwork of local artists. It's also exciting to see new pieces displayed! it shows that the local artists are getting the support they deserve! There's plenty of artwork of all different styles and themes, MUCH MORE than the photos I share here! 5/5 spot without a doubt. I recommend visiting if you ever have a chance.

It was great speaking with you btw and I look forward to seeing you and talking again. She was kind and welcoming and very friendly and in tune. I love that! The artists pieces she is showcasing for sale were all beautiful from the paintings to the sculptures. It is a warm space and even though it's small I could have spent all day here looking closely at what she is selling and listening to her talk to me about each and every piece and life as well. She is smart and witty and well spoken. She also recommended we go next door to their other gallery and come to find out the guy working it was her husband and he was just as lovely in each and every way. He offered us a glass of champagne to enjoy while we looked at all of the art he had to offer as well. He has a nice exhibit upstairs to showcase one artist in particular and his work is amazing. Thank you both for the information you provided and allowing us to enjoy all of the wonderful artists you are displaying. I wish you both the best of luck in all of your endeavors. I'll see you again soon ;) Enjoy :D

We were kicking around New Hope last month and spent more time in Mechanic Street Mugs than any…read moreother place. We had a blast chatting with the owner, Joel Roberts for about an hour. He's an old hippie who lived and worked as a teacher in California most of his life and then ended up moving to New Hope and buying a place for a song which he fixed up. He lives over the shop which helps keep his overhead down in a town where rent can be a killer and really drive up the price of the merchandise. Joel has a wild mix of old and new. He's got a full array of vintage mugs from different time periods, along with many awesome selections of hand made, one of a kind pottery mugs and bowls. He also has other interesting kitchen kitsch and a hodgepodge of artsy brickabrack and art. Very cool place. Recommended.

Suleika Jaouad and Anne Francey: The Alchemy of Blood Jun 22--Oct 6, 2024 The mother daughter art show . it was very touching to see this You can see the mother's art . She made it while she was pregnant with Suleika. And did the same show we see daughter Suleika living through her illness with leukemia. See the two women going through life and their wonderfully creative way. The ups and the uncertainties and pain, but all along and together. It really was beautiful . How wonderful the mother and introduced her daughter to the art of Frida Kahlo. A wonderful inspiration. it's wonderful how women can support each other and empower each other and so many ways. It really was beautiful to witness ! It's hard to say my favorite part of that particular exhibit. Maybe with Suleika and her dog laying in bed together. The beautiful comfortably get from pets and those around us. And the things around us like art and nature. Just having an appreciation for these things and finding comfort as much as possible. Being open to it. ~~~~ BIRTH WHEEL by Amy Johnquest I love the wheel of fortune Birth wheel. It was also interesting to see the other options available to other spinners. The life that we were born into by the people that we are born from... Or adopted by. the wheel of life and see what life gives you. Let me say that it was wonderful to be at this museum. As soon as I came in, I felt very welcome from the attendant. I enjoyed the gift shop Upstairs I could see that there is an opportunity to have a weekly evening drawing event. I can see there was a pig figure... And the results of a previous event to draw this pig . And it's obvious that people sat different positions around the pig. I enjoyed seeing all angles. All the different charming styles by local people who happen to attend. What is delightful place. So much so , I can't wait to come back !!

I visited the Michener Art Museum a few weeks ago on a Saturday when my husband and I were in…read moreDoylestown. It was my first visit, and I really loved it. The Michener isn't huge, but it's a lovely museum. It's located inside a historic 19th century prison building, which sounds like it wouldn't be beautiful - but it is beautiful: stone walls, an arched entry, a courtyard. It's named for the novelist and Doylestown resident James A. Michener, who established the endowment for the museum and donated significant funds and some paintings from his private collection to the museum, which opened in 1988. As a regional art museum, it collects both historic and contemporary American works, with a focus on the art of the Delaware Valley. Its permanent collection includes nearly 4,000 artworks, including works by famous Pennsylvanian artists. I happen to love Wharton Esherick and George Nakashima and was thrilled to see their work in the museum! I wish we'd had more time so that I can could read for a bit in the Nakashima Reading Room - don't miss it. The museum also has a small outdoor sculpture garden, a small gift shop, and a little cafe if you need a coffee. And on top of all that, their staff are friendly and helpful AND they have great exhibits! We visited for an exhibit currently at the museum - "Anila Quayyum Agha: interwoven" (I had seen her work at a gallery in Houston about a decade ago and was thrilled to find another opportunity to see her work) - but really enjoyed their permanent collection as well. A small but charming and regional art museum with an impressive and unique permanent collection and great exhibits. Definitely check it out if you're in the area!

Built on the site of the inhumane Bucks County Jail, not only is the art museum diverse, the grounds are fascinating. Before entering, you'll see sculptures and an imposing stone wall -- the site of the last man hanged in Bucks County. Exhibits are on one beautifully-designed level. Most of the artists and/or subjects celebrate the creativity of the region: paintings, sculptures, works that could be called "installations." With the exception of the Mona Lisa (and a few other pieces) I'm not a fan of Renaissance or religious art. Works here span the 1800s to present -- a lot of contemporary -- which may be why I soaked in everything I saw. Doylestown isn't as well known as New Hope ... but, what a charming town with beautiful old homes and good shopping. After going through the museum -- it takes an hour or so -- you may want to walk to Main Street and enjoy a coffee or spot of lunch. We lucked out and inadvertently timed our visit on the same day as Doyletown's popular art show. A stellar afternoon!
