Established in 1983 by Paul and Peggy Chalmer, the Moon River Gift Gallery provides an interesting venue for local, national and even international artists to showcase their talent. According to both these enterprising art aficionados, art is not restricted to any one medium. Accordingly, you will find an array of exhibits that range from paintings and sculpture to woodwork and weavings.
The gallery solicits promising new talent and purchases work from them outright once they have established themselves within the gallery. The proceeds are split according to a ratio of 70:30. This allows the buyers to avail of the finest works of art at the most reasonable rates without the involvement of any middlemen. The artists too, benefit from this process as they are able to market their works at modest rates while also gaining exposure through interaction with a wider scale of audiences.
You will also find artistic works crafted out of stained and leaded glass. The Moon River Gift Gallery also houses handmade curios which make excellent gift ideas. Here you can browse through a comprehensive collection of cards, journals and other souvenirs. The cards and journals are themed according to the type of occasion, to enable you to find a perfect way to express just what you wanted to say.
The Gallery also hosts a variety of events and activities throughout the year in order to encourage participation and awareness.
For further information, you can call Paul and Peggy at 250-344-5313.
